[Bug 407813] [NEW] Arabic fonts are bad

[Ramy Eid]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

Firefox renders some of the websites like www.aljazeera.net [popular for Arabic users] in very bad fonts. I attached a screenshot of an article on aljazeera website [http://www.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/28F26579-EF82-4021-B495-4DE7D505E7AF.htm].
bbcarabic.com is displayed with better font quality but still not the quality of Microsoft Arabic fonts.
