It might be related to copy and paste, but if it is, it's possible
that it only displays scrunched up right after pasting, and not when
the card is actually reviewed. That's an issue I still need to solve.

Quoting Ayesha Nicole <[email protected]>:
Just an update - I created another card with the exact same phrase (one for
each: MSA, ECA, LCA), and typed each word out, and it seems to display
alright now; I wonder if I copied and pasted the scrunched up one? Unsure.
But it seems to be working for now. Thanks!

Hmmm. This is strange and I am confused. For the word cards with 'as
salaamu 'alaikum' in Arabic, it formats fine as 2 words (attached). And I
will try some more couplets (2 words) and phrases (3+ words) and see what
happens. And it is also puzzling because I was able to use this
specialized font in Anki, but setting up the format (html code) is not
going to work for me - I prefer formatting buttons and drop down menus.
I even tried other Arabic fonts (such as the standard Microsoft Word
packaged font for Arabic called 'Arabic Typesetting') and have the same
results as the first attachment. I could use Arial for Arabic, but the
script is not as nice in appearance, in my opinion. Maybe I will just
create a card type for this particular phrase using Arial font, until I
figure out what is causing it?

I'm afraid this is not something Mnemosyne has direct control over: font
rendering is handled by the GUI library we use (Qt4, same as Anki BTW).
So, this is probably a bug in Qt. Perhaps you can try with a different
font. (I use Arial for arabic, and don't see any issues, apart from the
kasra being difficult to see)
