Make Arabic Pad atau Membuat Tulisan ARAB di PC

Writing Arabic with non Arabic windows or keyboard can be a frustrating jobs. But with Arabic Pad, this can be done easily. Arabic Pad is a simple editor like notepad, but designed to write Arabic [Unicode] text , especially for Non Windows Arabic. I hope that with this program write Arabic is more easily, by customizing the keyboard key so it’s close to the Arabic letter sound.


Setting your Computer (Windows 2000/XP)

Before you can using this program you must set your regional setting by add Supplemental language Support (right-to-left languages). If after run this program and the text doesn’t work correctly, the text were left aligned or the text were broken, then you must do the following step:
Open Control Panel
Select Regional and Language Options
select Languages tab
And check the options “Install files for complex script and right-to-left (Including Thai)” and click Apply.
Insert the Windows CD Installer and locate the correct path requested.
Follow the next step until the computer ask for restart, so restart.

If the above step still doesn’t work, maybe you have to install Universal Font. For Microsoft Office user, you can add Universal Font from the Installation CD. Follow this step :
Open Control Panel
Select Add or Remove Programs
Select Microsoft Office and click Change
Select Add of Remove Features click Next
In the next step, check the “Choose Advanced Customization of Applications” and click Next
From the tree view, Select: Office Shared Features > International Support > Universal Font(click/select and choose Run from my Computer from the drop down menu)
Click Update
