InDesign is a powerful tool for multilingual publishing, but it still lacks smart support for right-to-left languages like Persian (Farsi).
We propose integrating an AI-powered Natural Language Processing (NLP) engine—especially with Persian language capabilities—to help automate and enhance the typesetting process.
🔍 Key Features this engine could offer:
Automatic detection and correction of text language (Arabic → Persian).
Intelligent number conversion (Arabic, Persian, or Latin based on text context).
Auto-insertion of half-spaces (نیم‌فاصله) where appropriate.
Smart paragraph and character styling suggestions based on content type.
AI-based proofreading and grammar suggestions.
Content-aware layout and reflow recommendations.
Summarization and auto-captioning tools.
💡 Why this matters:
Persian users face unique challenges when working with text-heavy documents. Currently, most corrections are done manually or with external scripts. A built-in NLP engine would drastically reduce the time spent on micro-adjustments and improve overall quality.
This would not only benefit Persian speakers, but also open up future possibilities for AI-powered publishing in other RTL and non-Latin languages.
