I have not done this before. I am unsure of how this could be done. Here is
what comes to my mind:


  - I would think you would need to change the x-coordinate of the page
  to start from the top-right of the page -- instead of top-left.
  - The rendering of characters needs to be done from right to left.
  (Unless you do that already in your string generation code: basically flip
  the text.)
  - I wouldn't think you would need to manipulate anything with respect
  to the unicode characters.
  - The font needs to be provided or supported by pdflib.


Please do let me know if you find an answer to this interesting problem.
Regards.

Hi,

        I'm trying to use pdflib to generate Arabic.

        Is this possible?

        If so, what font should one use?

        Someone has told me that I may need to manipulate the unicode
characters to change the order to right-to-left. Has anyone done this
before?

Thanks,
Skip
