Use of the Tatweel codepoint in Arabic text is not a good idea for exactly the above reason and more. To keep a clean encoding you should keep it out of your text. Encoding tatweel in Arabic text in order to accomodate mediocre editors that can't do spacing right is not really a good idea. Thanks, Mete -- Mete Kural Touchtone Corporation 714-755-2810 --
