Hi,

I’m slightly modifying your software,adding some Farsi characters, but I don’t speak Arabic, nor Farsi… I’m just guessing what your program does, and I have a doubt.
According to http://utf8-characters.com/arabic-presentation-forms-a/
Arabic letters have different forms, including an isolated one.

If I’m right, your matrix ARABIC_GLPHIES, represents the data as follows:
unicode – isolated – initial – middle – final -number of forms. For instance,

{ ‘u0622′,’uFE81′,’uFE81′,’uFE82′,’uFE82′,2 }

means:
‘u0622′ is the unicode representation
‘uFE81′ is the isolated representation
‘uFE81′ is the initial representation
‘uFE82′ is the middle representation
‘uFE82′ is the final representation
2 is the number of forms (in this case there are repeated chars)

by unicode representation I mean the one described here: http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/Unicode-6.0/

If my assumptions are right, your code is apparently not looking for isolated chars. The only time you look for the form 1 is within an if case (reshapeIt method), when

if(wordLength >= 2)

my understanding is an isolated char has lenght=1…

My questions are:

1) did I understand correctly the representation of your data?
2) Am I right thinking the isolated chars are never displayed?

Thanks in advance

I tried reshaping the Quranic verses but some characters still appear as boxes. I also used the DejaVuSans font. Do you know why this could be happening?

Does this lib provides full Arabic support? are there plans to update it in the future to reshape Quranic text?
