A strange bug was corrected. + + - A storage leak was found which prevented the formatting of + longer documents, leading to 'save stack overflow'. + + - A bug in the ligatures module was found which used to produce + bogus messages 'missing letter y in font xnsh14' and to + slightly interfere with correct vowelization. + + - A bug in the output module was found which used to produce + bogus messages 'underfull vbox while \output was active'. + The fix might slightly influence page breaking. + + New features: + + - There is now limited support for Arabized LyX. + Since there are no 'italic', 'slanted', 'sanserif' etc. fonts + available for ArabTeX, all special font variants are presently + mapped into 'bold face'.

Input is supposed to be + Arabic in the standard transliteration encoding (other modes + might work by accident), output is an extended Hebrew writing + in the chosen Hebrew font, and the standard transliteration + when activated. Arabic vowels are presently not provided; the + Hebrew vowels work but are presumably of no use. + + Caution: The new mode can be expected to contain errors. We + do not know the exact writing conventions, and have no access + to any relevant literature. Scholars in the field are urged + to contact the author. Comments and suggestions are invited. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +08.09.2003: Version 3.11b + + Fixes: + + - the selection of fonts in Arabic and Hebrew mode has been + drastically changed, and several logical errors have been + eliminated. Some of the remaining bugs have been fixed. + + - Hebrew Plain mode works again. To use it, download the new + version of 'hebtex.tex'(!), the Hebrew Plain driver.

Hopefully there are not too many new bugs. + + - Hebrew Plain mode should work again. If you are not directly + concerned, forget it; tests are going on. The necessary + corrections cannot be handled by "apatch.sty" alone, see the + remarks below. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + + - in case you are using the Hebrew Plain mode (and only then) + also download the new version of the driver module "hebtex.tex" + (not "hebtex.sty"!) + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +22.08.2002: Version 3.11 + + Status: + + - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been + merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load + and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there + are some new files, and some have been extensively rewritten! + The functionality is supposed to be unchanged. + + - Distribution and modification of ArabTeX is now governed by + the Latex Project Public License (see LPPL.TXT). + + - We recommend installing of the fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf" + to obtain better quality of output. These fonts are now the + default; to revert to the old font versions use the command + "\oldarabfont". + + New features: + + - In Hebrew mode, all standard fonts available on CTAN are now + supported, including the possibility of generating vowel points + in \vocalize mode. + + Bugs: + + - Hebrew Plain TeX mode is currently broken. + + Installation: + + - Download the contents of "TEXINPUT", and in case of any font + problems also "MFINPUT". + + - In case of problems with old DVI files regenerate them; or else + download "arabsymb.mf" and regenerate the font "nash14". + +========================================================================== +23.04.2003: Version 3.10k + + Fixes: + + - some glitches in Farsi mode were fixed. + + - in Uighuric mode, some transcriptions were missing. + + - in Urdu mode, final 'wavy hah' is generated now. + + New features: + + - in Uighuric mode, <:s> produces 'sin' with three dots below. + <A> produces 'alif' with 'madda', so does <^A>. + + - in Farsi mode and its descendants, 'kasra' on a double letter + will be positioned below the letter instead of below the + 'shadda' mark. This feature will later become an option. + + - the internal test mode is less verbose. This need not concern + normal users. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +16.11.2002: Version 3.10j + + Fixes: + + - the handling of 'ayin' in Hebrew mode was improved. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +14.11.2002: Version 3.10i + + Fixes: + + - "matres lectionis" in Hebrew work better. + + - Version 3.10h was broken on some servers! + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +28.08.2002: Version 3.10h + + Fixes: + + - The math command \cap was broken. + + - Line breaking of Roman insertions within Arabic mode seems to + work correctly now. + + New features: + + - There is formally a new language mode \setbalut for Balochy. + Presently it is mapped to \setpashto but will be extended as + soon as the exact writing rules are known. + + - The command \cond #1{#2}{#3}\fi will expand to either #2 or #3 + depending on the TeX conditional #1. It is nearly equivalent + to #1 #2\else #3\fi but may also be used in Arabic mode. The + command is skippable and fully expandable. + + - \endinput may occur in Arabic mode. + + - The input character <G> encodes Pashto 'gAf' with a ring. In + Farsi and Pashto mode, <g> produces Farsi 'gAf' with a stroke. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +16.06.2002: Version 3.10g + + Fixes: + + - in Pashto mode, <.n> will produce 'noon' with a dot and a ring. + Some further Pashto codes can be found in Table 4.2. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +11.05.2002: Version 3.10f + + Fixes: + + - in Persian mode, some bugs concerning 'hamze on he' were fixed. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +14.04.2002: Version 3.10e + + Fixes: + + - in the standard Hebrew transcription, 'shwa' was missing. + + - in Persian mode, 'hamze on he' is produced if required. + + - in Hebrew mode using the 'hclassic' and 'hcaption' fonts, the + vowel points are generated differently to render better when + using T1 fonts. + + - in CP1256 encoding, explicit 'shadda' works now correctly. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +07.03.2002: Version 3.10d + + Fixes: + + - In many of the non-standard encodings the handling of double + letters (implicit shadda or not) has been corrected. + + - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart' + the handling of figure and table \captions has been improved. + + Hints: + + - When using a local addition to ArabTeX together with a patch + version of ArabTeX, read the local addition by \input after + the command \begin{document}, not by an \usepackage command. + Otherwise a race condition occurs that could overwrite your + local additions. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +03.03.2002: Version 3.10c + + Fixes: + + - The default language is Arabic again. + + - The LaTeX commands \footnote, \footnotemark, and \footnotetext + in normal LTR LaTeX mode were broken in version 3.10b. Sorry! + + - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart' + the environment 'tabular' works correctly. + + - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart' + the command \tableofcontents works correctly. + + - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart' + the commands \table and \figure may have a \caption. + + Hints: + + - In the Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart' + and *also* in normal LTR mode, within the \tabular environment + every row but the last must be terminated by \\, also if \hline + follows. The text of the error message has been improved. + + New Features: + + - The Arabic document classes 'arabbook', 'arabrep', 'arabart' + formerly required the use of the ArabTeX standard encoding for + correct functioning of generated section heads and the like. + This restriction was never noticed, and applies no more. + + - Abjad numbers now also work with other input encodings. + + - Within an Arabic environment the command \stdcode{some text} + accepts Arabic text in the ArabTeX standard encoding even if + otherwise some other encoding is in use. This may be useful + for local corrections. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +12.02.2002: Version 3.10b + + Fixes: + + - The LaTeX commands \footnote, \footnotemark, and \footnotetext + now work correctly within Arabic environments, even if only + transliteration mode is active. The output mode (transliterate, + Arabic writing, or both) of Arabic inserts in the footnote text + is inherited from the main document if not explicitly switched + locally within the footnote text. + + Hints: + + - Footnotes containing Arabic inserts might come out too high. + This may be prevented, at the risk of lines overlapping, by + \smash-ing the Arabic insert or even the complete footnote. + + - Within transliteration mode hyphenation is only performed after + long vowels, thus \sloppy mode might be required. If the last + word of a line ends with a long vowel, a spurious hyphen will + appear. This is a bug; presently no fix is known! + + New Features: + + - The LaTeX footnote commands (see above) also work within the + Arabic document classes 'arabart', 'arabrep', and 'arabbook'. + + - By default, or after the command \LRfootnotes, the footnotes + are positioned as in a Roman document, and the footnote text + is assumed to be Roman by default. Arabic inserts are produced + by \RL{ }. + + - After the command \RLfootnotes, footnotes run from right to + left and the default language mode is Arabic. Roman inserts + are produced by \LR{ }. + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +06.10.2001: Version 3.10a + + Fixes: + + - A few minor patches from 'v3.09' did not make it into 'v3.10'. + + - The transliteration of '_h' was improved. + + - Plain TeX mode now also uses fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf" + as the default. + + - In Hebrew mode, 'cholem male' and vowels in contact now work + correctly. + + - In Hebrew mode, footnotes containing Hebrew inserts now have + uniform baselines again. + + New Features: + + - All patches are now handled by "apatch.sty". + + Installation: + + - download "apatch.sty". + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +17.09.2001: Version 3.10 + + Status: + + - This is a new minor version.

To fix these effects we had + to modify several source modules; we also found, and repaired, + several minor bugs. This is in fact nearly a new minor version; + on installation see below. + + - To our surprise we found, and repaired, a Y2000 problem. + + Changes: + + - Switch to the new font "xnsh14" by the command "\newarabfont"; + use "\oldarabfont" for switching back. The previous command + "\newfont" collides with a command in LaTeX2e. + + Extensions: + + - The font "xnsh14" contains all character fragments necessary to + build the characters in the extended Arabic segment of Unicode. + There is as yet no reading module for Unicode or UTF-8 encoding; + the present version of "utf8.sty" is still inconsistent. + + - There are new commands "\MIN" and "\IN" for two frequently used + abbreviations in Sindhi. + + - The file "atrans.sty" is loaded automatically. + + - The file "etrans.sty" has been deleted. Use "\settrans{english}" + + - The file "nashbf.sty" has been deleted. Use "\setnashbf" + + Installation: + + - If you already have loaded version 3.07, unpack and replace the + macro files in "tex307a.zip"; otherwise do a complete install as + indicated below for version 3.07 first. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +16.07.98: Version 3.07 + + Status: + + - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been + merged into the respective macro files. To install it, load + and replace all macros in the subdirectory "TEXINPUT"; there + are several new files! + + - We have rewritten substantial parts of the package in order to + increase stability and also to ease maintenance and extensions; + the modularisation is now different, and some of the internal + interfaces have been modified. This need not concern the user; + the functionality has not been changed, and apparently nothing + was broken during the transition to the new structure. + - The main reason for the changes was, apart from improving the + overall structure, to prepare for the handling of the full + Arabic segment of Unicode. This goal has not yet been attained, + but it required substantial changes in the internal structures. + - The positioning of diacritical marks has on the average been + much improved. There are a few exceptions; affected users that + need the maximum quality available could try their luck with + the new fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf" (see below). Otherwise + the user interface has not changed. + + Additions: + + - There are two new experimental fonts "xnash14" and "xnash14bf" + which overcome some limitations inherent in the previously + available versions "nash14" and "nash14bf". These fonts can be + activated (if installed) by the new command "\newfont" and can + be deactivated again by "\oldfont"; these commands change the + meaning of the commands "\setnash" and "\setnashbf" to switch + to the new versions, if required, and back. Normal users not + requiring the new versions can safely ignore this feature; they + need not now install these fonts. + + Bugs: + + - Presently none are known. + +========================================================================== +24.03.98: Version 3.06h + + Fixes: + + - some ligatures had been broken by the Sindhi mode; these have + been fixed. + - kashida before alif maqsura works again. + + Problems: + + - verses produced via "verses.sty" will ruin the word spacing if + they occur within an Arabic paragraph inside a footnote, and + possibly in other circumstances. There is a workaround: put the + command "\setspace{4.3pt plus 0.001fil}" after the last verse. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +11.03.98: Version 3.06g3 + + Fixes: + + - bi-directional linebreaking has been improved; there were some + spurious blank spaces. + + New features: + + - ArabTeX is now believed to be compatible with the BABEL system. + We cannot test this locally; reports are welcome. We acknowledge + useful hints by Olaf Kummer and Johannes Braams. + + - there is now less spurious information in the LOG file. + + - there are some preparations for processing the UTF-8 encoding + and the extended Arabic character set provided in UNICODE. These + features cannot yet be accessed from the user level. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +26.01.98: Version 3.06f + + Fixes: + + - the special handling of final "mim" has been restricted to the + Sindhi mode. + - the positioning of diacritics has been improved. + + - Hebrew and EDMAC users: the "\if@lodia effect" has been fixed. + + Note to users of EDMAC: + + - download the new version 3.06a of 22.01.98 of "aedpatch.sty". + This fixes the format of footnote paragraphs. (This correction + cannot technically be handled by a patch within "apatch.sty"). + + Note to users of the Sindhi mode: + + - please download the fonts again to get all characters. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +15.12.97: Version 3.06e + + Fixes: + + - "alif maqsura" and isolated "hamza" take explicit vowel marks + and also "tanwin" if required. + - final "mim" in the Urdu mode again has the long shape. In the + Sindhi mode a short form is simulated by a kashida if needed. + - in Urdu the encoding <,d> produces "dal" with a "toi" accent, + and initial <U> becomes "alif+damma" and "waw" as required. + - some transcription errors in Urdu mode have been fixed. + - some ligatures in Sindhi mode are improved. + + Problems: + + - medial "wavy hah" in Urdu has a mark below it (controversial). + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +27.11.97: Version 3.06d + + Fixes: + + - the input letter <A> denotes alif also in initial position and + after a prefix separated by a hyphen. It may take short vowels, + and also sukun (only if quoted). This feature may be useful when + copying corrupted texts. + - the "lam" of the article carries "sukun" also if the following + word starts with "`ayin", like with the other "moon letters". + - the encodings <I> and <iy> are equivalent; also <Iy> and <iyy>, + <U> and <uw>, <Uw> and <uww>. + - <"> and <""> at the beginning of a word generate alif with wasla + even after a prefix. + - a prefix before hyphen no more needs a short vowel to work. + - the invisible character <|> is legal in the initial or the final + position (but makes no sense there). It never takes a vowel mark. + + New features: + + - the inflection endings <-a>, <-i>, <-u>, <-aN>, <-iN>, <-uN> may + be separated by a hyphen, also if written <-aNA>. Otherwise the + character after a hyphen will be considered to start a new word, + but may be joined to the prefix if possible (e.g., in <al-i-ismu> + where <-i-> is a connection vowel producing "kasra", and <ismu> + starts with "alif" "wasla" combined with "lam" into "lam-alif" + carrying both "wasla" and "kasra".) + - if a ligature is separated by <|> or <--> (kashida), any vowel + mark present will migrate to the appropriate character glyph. The + same happens with the implicit vowel mark that is produced by the + long vowels in the vowelizing modes. + - a comma <,> between digits will no more break the digit sequence + but will be recognized as a decimal separator. A hyphen <-> and a + solidus </> will also not break a digit sequence. A "number" must + still begin with a digit to be recognized. + + Problems: + + - the Urdu mode is still broken. + - for the new language modes (see 3.06) there is yet no (correct) + transcription. + + Hints: + + - users of the Sindhi mode should regenerate the fonts otherwise + the "wide kaf" may be missing. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +23.11.97: Version 3.06c + + Fixes: + + - final "alif maqsura" carries no sukun. + - in connection with EDMAC, an Arabic lemma bearing a footnote is + spread out by the same factor as the rest of the line, (e.g. in + verses) even if it contains spaces. + - Arabic footnotes with EDMAC no more produce overfull boxes, and + will no more let the page overflow. + + Known bugs: + + - prefixes separated by a hyphen must presently be given in the + fully vowelized input form, otherwise the writing is wrong. + - The Urdu mode is broken; also its transcription is wrong. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +25.09.97: Version 3.06b + + Fixes: + + - in Kurdish mode, kashida and breaking of ligatures work now + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +18.09.97: Version 3.06a + + Fixes: + + - there were sometimes spurious newlines if the transliteration + was generated via an Arabic insertion + - ligatures can again be broken by inserting a bar | + - the ligatures family lam-gim, ta-gim etc. works again + - there were spurious spaces in bidirectional text under EDMAC + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +06.08.97: Version 3.06 + + Status: + + - This is a new minor version. All existing patches have been + merged into the respective macro files. + - This doc file has been trimmed down; history information up to + version 3.00 has been moved to "changes2.txt". + - Several file names of the mini-documentation have been changed + to lower case and carry the suffix ".txt", for the benefit of + certain web-browsers. See also the file "arabtex.htm". + + Fixes: + + - some minor bugs have been fixed that had introduced spurious + spaces or newlines when switching between Arabic and Hebrew. + - "kashida" (--) between a consonant and a (long or short) vowel + will no more split the vowel indicator from the consonant glyph. + + Additions: + + - the new command "\setsindhi" will switch to a language mode for + Sindhi in an extended Arabic script. For details, process and + read the file "sindhi.tex". + - the new command "\setuighur" will switch to a language mode for + Uighuric in an extended Arabic script. For details, process and + read the file "uighur.tex". + - the new command "\setmalay" will switch to a language mode for + Old Malay (Jawi) in an extended Arabic script.

This + is a patch for version 3.04! + + See also version 3.04 below. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +19.03.96: Version 3.04 + + Status: + + - ArabTeX now cooperates well with LaTeX 2e (June 1995 and later) + and also still with Plain TeX and LaTeX 2.09. The configuration + is determined automatically. With LaTeX 2e ArabTeX and all its + suboptions are packages. + - The internal structure has changed extensively; this need not + trouble the user. + + Fixes: + + - \baselineskup, \parskip, \baselinestretch now work correctly + in the Arabic modes. + - The TeX special characters \#, \$, \%, \& can now be used (they + just had been forgotten). + - A number of minor bugs have been fixed. + + Modifications: + + - Digits and punctuation have been raised to the writing line. + We feel this looks better. + - The handling of numbers (= digit sequences) has been improved. + Within a number, the decimal separator is the comma. + - Bidirectional line-breaking has again been much improved. The + command \goodpar still works but is rarely required. + - The option "abidir" is no more necessary. + - The option "nashbf" is no more necessary. + - The option "abjad" is no more necessary. + + Additions: + + - User defined macros can be made known to ArabTeX by the + declaration \allowarab {\macro_name} (previous to their use + within an Arabic environment). The replacement text after + substituting the parameters must be legal ArabTeX input and + may contain further macro calls. The macro must be previously + defined via \newcommand or \def. + + - The Arabic Windows encoding is supported; load the reading + module by \input arabwin.sty, \usepackage {arabwin} or by + adding the LaTeX 2.09 option "arabwin". Activate it by the + command \setcode {arabwin}. + + - There are some additional transliteration modes for Persian + and Urdu; in case of interest: inquire directly. + + - The package "raw.sty" defines the command \setraw to switch + off all special processing for numbers, special characters + and parentheses. This may be helpful for OCR work. Switch + back by \unsetraw. + + - The (experimental) LaTeX 2e class file "arabart.cls" provides + an Arabic article format. Within Arabic environments a number + of LaTeX commands are enabled: sectioning, list environments, + page headers and footers, table of contents, footnotes, quote, + quotation, verse, center, twocolumn. All text arguments are + considered to be Arabic text in the chosen encoding. Some of + the LaTeX environments are missing, e.g., tabular and tabbing, + minipages, pictures. They can usually be simulated by leaving + the Arabic environment and reverting to the standard LaTeX + commands. + + We are working on extensions to this format; suggestions and + bug reports are welcome. We do not intend to supply a version + for LaTeX 2.09. + + - See also the comments on Version 3.03 below. + - The notes in README.303 still apply. + + Hints: + + - Uniform baselines may be obtained by setting \lineskiplimit + to -\baselineskip and adjusting \baselinestretch to 1.4 (with + LaTeX) or \baselineskip to 1.4\baselineskip with Plain TeX. + Some experimenting is advised. + - If you want to process the manual "arabdoc.tex" under LaTeX 2e + first move the file "arabimax.tex" to the REPORT subdirectory. + You will get some error messages on the first run. Forget them + and process the file again; LaTeX 2e is to blame. Warning: the + report is not quite up to date. + - Put any local macro definitions into the LaTeX preamble or else + precede them by \setnone; thus the < sign can be used in the + normal meaning as a comparison operator. Activate short Arabic + insertions again by \setarab or any other of the commands for + language choice. + - PiCTeX users may use Arabic labels within diagrams if and only + if these are included in \< and > (NOT < and >). + - If you use MlTeX and the output looks broken, note the version + number of MlTeX and inform us. + + Complaints: + + - There is STILL no Nasta`liq font. + + Known bugs: + + - None as yet. + + How to move from earlier minor versions to version 3.04: + + - read and/or print "README.303" + +========================================================================== +04.07.95: Version 3.03e + + Fixes: + + - Final yah before hamza works again + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +24.05.95: Version 3.03d + + Fixes: + + - After switching to other encodings switching back to the + standard encoding works again. + - An empty \RL {} insertion will no more blow the system. + + Problems: + + - see version 3.03c + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +02.05.95: Version 3.03c + + Fixes: + + - The METAFONT routines for the fonts "nash14" and "nash14bf" + used a file "asymbols.mf" that conflicted with the AMS-Fonts. + This file has been renamed to "arabsymb.mf". To use the new + version, download "arabsymb.mf" and "nashbase.mf" from the + subdirectory ARABTEX/MFINPUT and delete "asymbols.mf". This + only concerns users who need to regenerate the fonts locally. + + Problems: + + - The font "dclassic" used by the Hebrew mode of ArabTeX has on + the archive "noa.huji.ac.il" been replaced by a new version + that is incompatible to the previous version while keeping the + same name. We are working on a solution to resolve the ensuing + compatibility problems. Users of the previous version are not + affected. + + Acknowledgment: + + - The routines for building up punctuated Hebrew characters have + profited from macros written by Joel Hoffmann and contained in + his packages "dots.sty" and "hvowel1.sty". We apologize for not + pointing out this fact clearly. + + Necessary action: + + - Normally none, except if indicated above. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +24.04.95: Version 3.03b + + Fixes: + + - The handling of single and double quotes, and of other special + characters, in the ASMO 449 and ISO 8859-6 encodings has been + improved. + - After a punctuation character inside a word (usually an error) + no space will be produced. + - <tanwIn> on <'alif maqsUraT> works again. + - In \setverb mode, a <harakaT> on <'alif> now works. + - In \setverb mode, <A> may be used to produce <'alif>. + - The ligature <lm|a> is produced instead of <l|ma>. + - <ba'>, <ya'> etc. before <lAm> now have the short form. + + Known bugs in ArabTeX: + + - \begin{arabtext} inside a minipage will produce a spurious + empty line; the reason is unknown. + + Hints: + + - Numbers after quotes will not be recognized as such and thus + will be reversed; as a workaround, leave a space around the + digits, e.g., <`` 1234 ''> or use a \nospace command, e.g., + <`` \nospace 1234 \nospace ''>. + Mind the spaces before the \nospace commands in the example! + - With LaTeX2e, load ArabTeX and its suboptions by the command + \usepackage. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +28.03.95: Version 3.03a + + Fixes: + + - A workaround for an error in some versions of ML-TeX has + been tentatively introduced. Non-ML-TeX users may safely + ignore this. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- +10.03.95: Version 3.03 + + Fixes: + + - A number of minor bugs have been fixed, nothing dramatic. + - The spacing of punctuation has been improved. + + Modifications: + + - Hebrew vowel points are provided. Hebrew mode now uses the font + "dclassic". It can be downloaded e.g. from "noa.huji.ac.il". + + Additions: + + - The Hebrew encoding used in the machine readable version + of BHS is supported.

Switch to Hebrew by \sethebrew, and back to Arabic + by \setarab.
