In word and Excel its coming perfect but not in report


>BTW, although the Arabic letters are assigned differently (there is not a straight letter-to-letter transliteration) ALL non-Latin fonts (e.g. Greek, Cyrillic, Farsi, Hebrew, etc.) use the same ASCII characters for numbers, whatever they might look like. The only real problem comes if the font designer does not realise that the font should have its own numerals and simply omits them or uses European "Arabic" numerals instead. There is also a standard Arabic ASCII character set too I believe.

Can you Pls tell me from where I can get the Arabic ASCII char. set..
