I am an English student of Arabic, running Office 2004 on a Power PC
G4 Mac.
I want to keep, as far as possible, my machine running in English, but
would like to be able to type in Arabic. However, i have 2 problems:
1. When i set the input language (apple prefs) to Arabic, i get Arabic
script. However, Word does not join the letters up, so it ends up being
a load of rubbish.
-If i change the language to Arabic, too, it doesn't help.
-Arabic doesn't appear to be one of the languages that is actually
supported in Office 2004. Can i get Arabic-language proofing tools for
it?
2.My laptop has a standard QWERty keyboard, so i bought a USB Arabic
keyboard. However, not all of the letters shown on the keys match what
i actually get when i type this in. I imagine that this is due to the
slight differences between a PC and Mac keyboard layout (?). Is there
anything i can do (or must i prise off the keys and replace them in the
appropriate slots?)
Thanks for any help,
Charlie
