Hello Tarig, All I know is "arabtex" which allows you to typeset Arabic document with teTeX, TeX/LaTeX. There is also the unifont package which contains Unicode font which most likely include Arabic glyphs. But, AFAIK, there is no arabic-specific X font yet, and for example www.debian.org/index.ar.html does not display correctly with Netscape 4.x in Debian due to the absent of such font. It was about a month or two ago when I checked for Arabic fonts, so perhaps someone might have packaged Arabic fonts recently. I don't know. :-) Hope this helps, Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling Civil and Environmental Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Alberta, Canada Debian GNU/Linux Chinese Project -- http://www.debian.org/zh/ Come visit Our Lady of Victory Camp -- http://www.olvc.ab.ca/
