i have been studying urdu on my own for several years.
i wanted to type in urdu on a word document.
i can get the fonts and i can get the doc to go right to left, but either the text goes from left to right, or it is ok until i hit the space bar and then all kinds of nightmarish things happen.
any advice/consolation/sympathy?
much appreciated.
p.s. i've done the thing with regional and language settings and "set language" in word.

Im not sure if ive tried on Word but on notepad urdu works fine you just need to install the keyboard type from somewhere in control panel and then press the keys that code for it and it types in urdu
then open word change language in task bar and write .....
it is really easy .... believe me
hehe - that is hard to believe!
thanks - i will try this. i already have some of those fonts installed.
so it will be a completely different keyboard than the one that starts like this

i may well be back with stupid questions. it's easier to type here than it is in word!
