We did install ICU with Developer guys and the results was the same unless you have come with something they do not. We are in Iraq and there is no Banking system to be able to pay anyone as state owned university. I appreciate if you guide us so we can fix this issue with our system, http://library.koyauniversity.org/ Thanks On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 3:59 PM, Mohamed zalabany <[email protected]> wrote: i confirm the search in Arabic is working well and we developed the system to manipulate the special cases in Arabic also but we offer it with charge i think you didn't install the ICU properly Mohamed El Zalabany Integrated library systems consultant Zalabany Knowledge Systems Team© For Libraries and Information systems Development and support [email protected] Mobile: 0111291444 > From: [email protected] > Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2012 15:28:10 +0300 > To: [email protected] > CC: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Koha] Search of Non-Latin records > > Dear Araik, > > I think no Latin characters indexing and searching remain the > major bottleneck of Koha.
