Hi.

Iam facing problem in FOP 0.94 version. Iam not able to display arabic font.

I have done all the guidelines for generating metric file.  when i mention in 
xsl  as "name " in english and use the font-name ="Iqraa", arabic character is 
diaplaying.

But when i include "ÔÓíÔÈ" , boxes are displayed in the pdf.


Can you plaese help me to solve the problem.

There not enough info to help you here, I think. At any rate, you have to make
sure that the font you're using actually has all the necessary glyphs. Maybe you
need to try a different font. The thing that strikes me as odd is that you use
latin characters in your example. That can't be right. Well, that may just be an
encoding problem in the browser. The codepoints of arabic script are definitely
in a different Unicode range.
