I was checking it with Arial MS Unicode, Tahoma.

Yes, I can only get it to work if these 2 conditions are met.
Well, I'm glad you say it's "far from complete". I would hate to
think Persian has to remove this one character from circulation just
because  at this moment in time, the technology is not up to
dealing with it. I hope some unemployed genius who has been alerted
to the problem following this discussion or later finds it in
the archives will figure it out!

Hmm. I didn't know that.  How did this situation come to pass? I have
been wondering all this time since teh marbuta is also used in
Persian, why this could be when there are plenty of free keys available.
Who started this? Do you know anything of the history of these fonts.

ok. Sorry if I misunderstood. It did appear to me that people involved
in the technical issues thought that this character is no longer used
therefore the solution was to get rid of it and the technical
challenges it poses. I hope you can see how I could have been led
to think this!

Thanks for generously responding,
