Matplotlib: Writing right-to-left text (Hebrew, Arabic, etc.)

by

For Arabic you need both bidi.algorithm.get_display and arabic_reshaper modules:

from bidi.algorithm import get_display
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import arabic_reshaper

reshaped_text = arabic_reshaper.reshape(u'لغةٌ عربيّة')
artext = get_display(reshaped_text)

plt.text(0.25, 0.45, artext , name="Times New Roman",fontsize=50)
plt.show()

python matplotlib arabic text
