Why we like it

Blender RTL Text earns a place in the Superhive library for tackling a narrow but real pain point: right-to-left text rendering backwards in Blender. Its one-click fix and coverage of six languages make it a focused utility, though the developer notes it doesn't handle separated letters in Arabic.

What is Blender Rtl Text?

Blender RTL Text is an add-on from GilaDDD that solves a specific problem: when you type right-to-left text in Blender, it can come out in the wrong direction. The add-on lets you write in RTL or Middle Eastern fonts and correct the order with a single click, covering Arabic, Hebrew, Pashto, Persian, Urdu, and Sindhi.

If you need text in these languages for a video or project, the add-on handles the reversal so your characters read in the correct direction. One current limitation is worth noting: the developer states it does not fix the separated letters in Arabic.

Blender RTL Text is released under the GPL license and lists support for Blender 2.8 through 2.93. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available. It was published on Superhive almost five years ago by developer Gilad Frenkel.

Who is Blender Rtl Text best for?

Blender Rtl Text is best for blender users who need Arabic, Hebrew, Pashto, Persian, Urdu, or Sindhi text in a video or project without it appearing reversed.

How much does Blender Rtl Text cost?

Blender Rtl Text is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does Blender RTL Text support?

Blender RTL Text lists compatibility with Blender 2.8, 2.81, 2.82, 2.83, 2.9, 2.91, 2.92, and 2.93. If you run any version in that range, the add-on is built to work with your setup. It was published on Superhive almost five years ago, so its stated support reflects that period. For newer Blender releases, check the developer's page to confirm whether compatibility has been extended before you install it.

Which languages does Blender RTL Text handle?

Blender RTL Text handles right-to-left and Middle Eastern scripts, specifically Arabic, Hebrew, Pashto, Persian, Urdu, and Sindhi. If you type text in one of these languages inside Blender and it appears in the wrong direction, the add-on corrects the order with a single click. This makes it useful when you need text in these languages for a video or project without dealing with reversed characters, and the add-on ships with documentation.

Does Blender RTL Text fix separated Arabic letters?

Blender RTL Text does not fix the separated letters in Arabic. The add-on focuses on correcting the direction of right-to-left text so it no longer comes out reversed, but the separated-letters problem in Arabic is outside what it currently addresses. If that issue matters for your work, keep this limitation in mind and review the developer's page for the latest status before relying on it.

Is Blender RTL Text free to download?

Blender RTL Text is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and pricing can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current terms before you download. The add-on is released under the GPL license, which governs how it can be used and shared. For any questions about availability or terms, the developer GilaDDD can be reached through the product page on Superhive.
