Yeah, but I saw differences and I noticed in each one of them they changed some characters. > Can someone (Edward?) extract the full character sets 13 and 14 from > "TEST.WP" from the wp2rtf zip and either run those through wp2rtf or > generate PDFs that show the Arabic characters for me?

It would be actually good to mark somewhere the exact wp characters (charset, charnumber) and their multicharacter mappings. I will then do what I do for the double byte script, will handle those where the single codepoint to single codepoint works and will add a special handling for those that need to be mapped using two or more chars. In the single codepoint to single codepoint mapping I will mark them as having 0x0000 conversion which will be a special case. Nevertheless, I will do this later. > I think new additions to Unicode since version 4.1 (when I did the > WP6 mappings) will let us successfully map some of the additional > random diacritical marks WP used to Unicode; if so, I can also fix > the old WP6 mappings for those. Feel free to fix whatever you want. Patches are always welcome :) Cheers F. - -- Please avoid sending me Word, Excel or PowerPoint attachments.
