The Arabic Keyboard Extension
Description
The Arial Font, which is the Default Font for the Autodesk® AutoCAD® Standard Text Style, supports a large set of Unicode international characters, including Arabic and Hebrew.
Many other Fonts which are provided by MS Windows (C:\Windows\Fonts or Control Panel / Fonts) support Arabic.
The floating (Modeless) keyboard of this Program can be used with any language keyboard, and any language AutoCAD to input simple, Single Line Text in Arabic.
This Program uses all the characters from the Unicode “Arabic Presentation Forms B”, for the characters which go Right to Left. Numeric Characters (which go Left to Right) and Diacritical Marks (which are stationary) from the “Arabic” Code Block.
To obtain a better result in the appearance of the text generated, contextuality is done by the Program and not the TTF Font being used.
