Thank you for your reply. I have tried using some of the trunk
versions of FOP, but in all cases I get an exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:

Currently I think I'm going to give up. I have no problems with the
arabic text in all the other formats and I'm possibly just going to
convert the HTML into PDF and then settle for that.
