I've posted a similar topic a couple of months ago but I can't seem to find it anywhere... I didn't get any clear answers back then on my question where to find and download the ME version of Reader 7 so I ended up downloading and using version 6 ME. Now I really would like to upgrade since we're using 7 for everything else. Now, the problem is that when I go to the Reader ME page on adobe.com: <http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrmideast.html> Clicking 'free download' should take me to the download page of the ME version (Enlgish interface but including Arabic Font Support), but when I click it, it takes me to the UK website to download the plain English version! Doing a full search takes me to this same page every time. Can anybody give me the correct link to download Reader 7 ME please? OS: Win 2K SP4 (Virtual Machine) Location: The Netherlands

One thought: have you checked whether (a) the English Adobe Reader includes support for displaying ME fonts, or (b) the Arabic (or other) ME version of Reader perhaps includes support for choosing an English interface? Aandi Inston

(a) I know there is a seperate version for ME font support (I used Reader 6 ME before)... (b) As far as I know there is only 1 ME version, which does have the option of an English interface, yes. And that is the one I am looking for...

>(a) I know there is a seperate version for ME font support (I used Reader 6 ME before)... Yes, that was certainly true in 6.0. Have you checked that this was not changed in 7.0? > >(b) As far as I know there is only 1 ME version, which does have the option of an English interface, yes. And that is the one I am looking for... I don't really follow, in that case. Why not just choose Arabic if that is the case? Aandi Inston

Because I do not speak Arabic... ;) And if there would be no 7.0 ME, there wouldn't be a page about it either I would guess (click the link, you'll see)...

It's there. Make sure you click on the "choose a different version" link and then pick Arabic from the drop down list

You did not answer my question: Have you checked that this was not changed in 7.0? Is the question not clear, sorry, please ask if you need me to clarify what I meant. >Because I do not speak Arabic... ;) Still, it shouldn't be too hard to install it, check the preferences (Ctrl+K) and look for a language selection. >And if there would be no 7.0 ME, there wouldn't be a page about it either I would guess (click the link, you'll see)... I clicked the link from the Reader download page and I do not see any suggestion that there is a 7.0 ME. Only 6.0.2 and 5.0.5 are offered. What makes you think there is a 7.0 English ME version?

I'm sorry then I didn't understand the question...
I do not see any suggestion that there is a 7.0 ME.
This is what I see when I click the link:
So I'm guessing I'm seeing something different from what you're seeing?
Is that because I'm in Europe or something?
This must look really stupid but I really don't understand :)

Hi Heleen, As far as Arabic Language is concerned, I think my answer would be very beneficial not to you only, but for Adobe as well. This is because I have been doing an investigation on using Adobe Reader to fill in fields in Arabic of PDF files (Designed by Acrobat 7): If you have windows XP installed you can tune up language settings from "Regional and Language Options" of Control Panel by choosing "Arabic" to match the language version of the non-unicode programs. Further more you can request update from the help menu while you are keying in arabic alphabets. If you have Win 2K-SP4 installed as OS, then the best solution is to go for Reader 7, version 7.0.5 which can be selected from this link <http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2_allversions.html> select "arabic-middle eastern". However you can still use this version for windows Xp to achive your target, Hayder
