be upon you Jaffar, I am glade that you liked the post.<br /><br />Actually the thing about the Nook is it has dual screen, and I am not sure about Android and how it renders the text on such device unfortunately I am resident at Egypt, such device aren&#39;t available here, but u still can try to put the fonts on the font folder and try to have some fun with it I think it will need some tricks to make Arabic running Ok on the device, I promise if I got my hands on Nook I will do what I can do with it and let you know :)<br /><br />Thanks for your time.Ahmed

magnificent job, I&#39;m just wondering if it&#39;s possible to implement this class in rooted Nooks e-reader which are based on Android OS, using Arabic fonts is no problem since we can import or specify the font location on the SD card, the only problem is reshaping of the letters , I&#39;m not a software developer , and I would like to be able to read Arabic books on the

know the point that you are talking about but I am not sure if it is done in the Android or not.<BR/><BR/>currently I am checking out a version of the Android source code to look for this part.<BR/><BR/>there is too many considerations shold be taken while developing this thing<BR/><BR/>- Direction of the statements in case that statement starts with "RTL" language letter<BR/>- Selection, in manar of "correct selection to the targeted character" not dummy turned over selection (considering RTL on the selection)<BR/>- Editing the rich edit content correctly in like browsers and document editor like office and open office (if it exist for Android)<BR/><BR/>I think the experince is little bit different than windows mobile if you tried it.<BR/>Windows mobile is closed and somehow it is very stupid to do on top of stack that should be done in the core of the system.<BR/><BR/>What I have noticed that Android fixes the line width correctly, which means initally we have something working, I didn't check their freetype library but I think it is well done, because of that Google cares about performance that why I think it will be done in good manar.<BR/><BR/>I will try to write more about what I have find out with Android<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your time.<BR/>BR<BR/>Ahmed EssamAhmed

like fribidi. <BR/><BR/>Regarding Android, I'm curious if it has also resolved other BiDi issues like hit detection, split cursor, selections, automatic base direction etc. After all, full BiDi support is a lot more than just the BiDi algorithm.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Dov Grobgeld - Initial author of

be upon you <BR/><BR/>First of all.<BR/><BR/>Andorid has the BiDi, you don't have to do the BiDi<BR/><BR/>the only few things you need with Android, is to install fonts, which is done by copying some font files in the system\font folder.<BR/>the last thing you need is to reshape the Arabic character from its current state to known like middle shape or last and so on.Ahmed

display of Fig3??<BR/>and if so, you didnt release it yet?<BR/><BR/>I will try to improve your class, and just you know, I'm working with my friend on a Quran application for Android that let user

be upon you<BR/><BR/>As I explained in Android post, Android team has already implement 2 important things, first the engine of True Type Font, second the Bidi, so the only thing that is needed in Android was the reshaping class which I provide in the open source project, the class is never been tested I think that it is good to be tested :) thanks a lot for that, I hope that you fix the reshape problem in the class in check it in back :) it will be great if you do so, also there is one problem, the class doesn't solve the Lam Alf, I hope that you success in what you are doing :)<BR/><BR/>ALLAH bless you.<BR/><BR/>BR<BR/>Ahmed EssamAhmed

3lykom <BR/><BR/>Are you talking about Android?<BR/><BR/>as I think, they like to open the market for 3rd party companies, u know that windows mobile doesn't has Arabic support, Imaginet is the biggest company for the Arabic support for pocket pc(BTW I was working there but on something else not in the Arabic Support), also the issue is not about the Arabic support it self, you know that loading fonts comsume some memory, they will not add the Arabic for few reasons, first if they are going to support arabic then they should support all languages, do u know how much the size of the font file that has all languages it's about 18 Mega Bytes, it is too much for small machines like mobile, I tried once to put it the device get hang, I think they will do like Microsoft, many copies for the Windows mobile localized depending on the region, there is no envy about the Arabic if someone gonna think like that, Microsoft invest on what is getting real benefit right now there is no benefit from adding arabic support by default, if you think about the capability, Microsoft can easily add the arabic support.<BR/>by the way , I have comment about the Arabic support on Windows, while I am doing some experiments on it I found that the Arbaic support that is provided by Imaginet is more efficient than the defualt Arabic Support that on normal Windows, until now I Don't get deeper to know why, but I think that guys in Imaginet have done a lot of work to enhance it over the time, it they did it good, <BR/>I hope to hear back from you Mohamed <BR/><BR/>thanks for your time

support arabic at all.<BR/><BR/>anyway most of the sources i found on the Internet talk about other right-To-Left languages such as Hebrew, Asian Languages.<BR/>Minor ones talk about Arabic.<BR/><BR/>This article is most usefull for those who deal with Embedded devices, mobile Development and Linux, UNIX Development.<BR/><BR/>thanks
