Hello, I am new to the list so I am not sure this is the right place to ask.
We are working on adding Arabic support for ReportLab (our opensource python-based pdf library). We would like to rely on calling a library that supports Arabic shaping (and character revering) than inventing this in our library. Some contributors have submitted batches to the reportlab-users list with working code that can print Hebrew and Arabic using PyFriBidi, however some users said that batch could not do Farsi (or Pashto) shaping. Here is the thread for that conversation http://two.pairlist.net/pipermail/reportlab-users/2009-November/008992.html We have also looked at the PyICU library but we could not figure out if the layout engine binding to ICU4C has been implemented or not. I'm wondering if anyone on this list has any experience with a good library that can handle the shaping for us, or has any suggestion or recommendation.
