Illustrator CS4 ME introduced a dedicated "Kashida" justification tool. Designers could select a line of text and apply a percentage of Kashida, extending the connecting strokes between letters rather than simply adding white space. This allowed for tight, justified columns of text that looked natural to native Arabic readers.
The installation typically included fonts like WinSoft Pro (available in Medium, Italic, Bold styles) to ensure professional typesetting right out of the box. Adobe Illustrator CS4 ME version
Perhaps the most requested feature for Arabic designers was Kashida (or Tatweel). In Western justification, you add spaces between words. In Arabic, stretching letters is often more aesthetically pleasing. Adobe Illustrator CS4 ME version
