Hi Daniel,
I looked at the patch briefly.
It doesn't seem to be doing character joining for works in Arabic.
I'm thinking that if we had the algorithm to do the joining then we
could add that and maybe a Tag or metadata item that enabled the joining
if needed. The joining algorithm, might be smart enough to only join
Arabic letters and leave the rest alone.
If you are interested, I think I can get my hands on a perl script that
does the joining.
I have to admit I'm not sure what's involved or even meant by character
joining (I didn't look at this yet). To avoid bloating ticket #956 with
too much stuff, perhaps you could file another ticket with a description
of that specific joining issue, and links to relevant Perl code,
examples, and whatever might help me address this (and then link to the
new ticket as a related issue in Ticket #956).
Daniel
