Hello all,
Can anyone provide some advice on Fop's handling of Arabic characters?
If you open this XML code in internet explorer it gives you a correctly
displayed Arabic word.
<value xml:lang="AR">جدول</value>
If I insert the exact Arabic code in my XML and translate the XML into PDF
using FOP, the pdf displays the Arabic characters back to front.
If I then actually reverse the characters:
i.e. <value xml:lang="AR">لودج</value>
And re-run the process, although now in the right order the joins between
the characters are lost.
I am using Traditional Arabic embedded within Fop.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Tanz
