<div dir="ltr">Hi<br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr"><br>I wanted to write a description but I figure out that it's better to put the bug, which the the main reason for me the send this message. Second thing, can I request from the ubuntu team to change the default Arabic font? it's not that pretty compared to Mac or even Windows.<br>
<br>The link of the bug is under, but I attached the report in the body also. <br><br><a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153519" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153519</a><br><div class="gmail_quote">
<br>Public bug reported:<br>
<br>
Writing in Arabic in Ubuntu both 7.04 & 7.10 are fine, but my problem is with one letter, the letter that we pronounce it in Arabic (la) this is not really a letter in the language but it's in the keyboard, any way I'll call it a letter.This letter is a the final form of two letters joined together ل and ا both make one like this ﻻ . The problem is not accepting to connect with any other letter.<br>
To make it more clear this is an e.g :<br>
in the normal typing the word كلاب looks like the previous one , but with the small issue the word look like this كﻻب as you see the letter ﻻ is not connected. So every time I want to write a word with this letter I have to write the two letters to make it one, so if I separated the whole word to letters the word will be like this:<br>
Normal typing: ك ﻻ ب<br>
But because of the problemو I have to write it like this to make it fine: ك ل ا ب<br>
<br>
as I said the two letters is ل and ا are the source of the letter ﻻ ,<br>
because of that I can write the word like it doesn't have any issue.<br>
anyway the key that type this letter is no use if the letter doesn't<br>
accept joining with the other letters, and this is another examples of<br>
writing with this problem:<br>
<br>
بﻻد : بلاد<br>
هﻻ : هلال<br>
سﻻم : سلام<br>
<br>
and so on. the word in the in left is the form that it must be.<br>
