I don't know arabic, and don't know what google translate does in the guts
either, but to me "To Uransarab" is close to "Lawrence of Arabia".I think it's
not a literal translation, but a phonetic aproximation. See: To Uransarab -> Lo
Urans arab -> LoWrans Arab -> Lawrence Arab -> Lawrence [of] Arabia The end
point is, I think the problem is not in iText, since you got the arabic
printed, right? Regards,Alex from Argentina (no pun intended)

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Problem with Setting Arabic characters with
Arial Unicode MS Font type
I get an arabic output like لورانسالعرب
This is not "Lawrence of Arabia". Its some "To Uransarab". I do not know
arabic. So i used Google Translate to check whats the actual Arabic
Translation. And it said "To Uransarab".

Replace str with "\u0644\u0648\u0631\u0627\u0646\u0633
\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628".
What happens? If the text says "Lawrence of Arabia" in correct Arabic,
then it's not an iText problem. It's something you're doing wrong, for
instance: you're extracting the String from the database using the wrong
encoding.
