Comment (by msevior):

 Replying to [comment:7 khassounah]:
 > the problem is default font. If you change the font (ctrl+D) to one that
 has the Arabic character set, you can enter arabic text.

 What fonts have good Arabic coverage? We can change things based on the
 LANG environment variable or  set a default template for Arabic builds
 with the right font.

 Apart from the font is the rendering OK? Please report detailed bugs to
 the abiword mailing list.
