Laying out Hebrew Text

• scrap_paper

  I have been trying to lay out a document for one of my clients in Hebrew. They have sent me a word document with the copy and I can read that without issue.

  When I copy and paste the text into Indesign it pastes written backwards (I can imagine why as the copy was written right to left probably).

  Is there any way to have the copy flow properly when I paste it into Indesign? Layout out every character by hand is something I don't have the time to do for sure.

  is there anything useful when you check "show import options" when importing into indesign?
