Does Question Writer 3 support "right to left" script?

Unfortunately, at present Question Writer 3 does not support right to left text.

Even if a right to left ISO embedded font is used, any right to left text that is entered will be flipped over when the quiz is viewed.

It is possible, if you have time and determination, to input your right to left text with all words and letters in reverse order.

The example given below shows part of the front page of the Italian quiz sample with arabic script. The resulting quiz shows the script characters in their standalone form, which makes reading much slower. If you attempt this workaround, you will also have to make sure that you do not use any question types which require a written answer (fill in the blank or essay types).
