[xep-support] Problem displaying italic arabic characters

[Alexander Peshkov]

Hello Pierre,

It turns out that all the fonts I have at hand do not have italic
outlines for Arabic.It looks like Arabic doesn't use italic to
emphasize text at all (but I'm not an expert here).

Best regards,
Alexander Peshkov                             mailto:peshkov at renderx.com

PD> Hi Alexander,

PD> First, thanks for the quick answer,

>> ArialMT Italic and ArialMT BoldItalic have no glyphs for Arabic
>> characters at all. It turns out to be a limitation of this font.
PD> Ok, that's why...
PD> By the way, do you know an italic font which has glyphs for Arabic 
PD> characters?

PD> Best regards
PD> Pierre
