Abstract
An antimagic labeling of a digraph with vertices and arcs is a bijection from the set of arcs of to such that all oriented vertex-sums are pairwise distinct, where the oriented vertex-sum of a vertex is the sum of labels of all arcs entering that vertex minus the sum of labels of all arcs leaving it. A graph admits an antimagic orientation if has an orientation such that has an antimagic labeling. Hefetz, M{\"{u}}tze and Schwartz conjectured every connected graph admits an antimagic orientation. In this paper, we support this conjecture by proving that any forest obtained from a given forest with at most one isolated vertex by subdividing each edge at least once admits an antimagic orientation.
