Is there any way to add arabic text in as3?

I want to add Arabic text using AS3. But the problem I am facing is that once I assign text to textfield, the text gets reversed. Is there any way by which I can get this thing done. If there is any SWC that is required, please send me the link to that too.

You can use the TLFTextField

var tlf:TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
tlf.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat( "arialArabic" );
tlf.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
tlf.direction = flashx.textLayout.formats.Direction.RTL;

tlf.text = "هلو ورد!";

Or if you need to use the standard TextField then you'll need to look into using a library like the one below to correct the text :

https://github.com/SaffronCode/UnicodeRTL

eg:

textField.text = UnicodeStatic.convert("هلو ورد!");
