Hi,

My problem.
I start of with an microsoft excel page a list.
The list contains English and Arabic
I open that page with pspad 4.5.4.
I get ???? instead of Arabic characters.
I use windows xp
All comments to solve problem will be deeply appreciated.

You have to ensure, the used encoding is appropriate to store the text. The
unicode encoding such as utf-8 should be able to. I guess, it must be possible
to save the excel file as txt using this encoding.

You also need a font for Arabic, which is fixed-width (non proportional) as
PSPad only supports these.

A quick search shows e.g. http://sourceforge.net/projects/arabeyes/files/ but I
don't know, iwhether it can be used.
