This means that - if you want to select something - a double-click will
only select '1' word at a time and a triple-click will select the whole
paragraph.

Don't know much about writing macros - and I hardly use them too...
But the way the document is shown on Mac makes me think that the
original PC/Win document isn't written on a native Arabic Windows
system, but with another win system just with the Microsoft Arabic
Language Kit (ALK) installed as an add-on to the original Windows system.
In this case the document will show up correctly when viewed on a PC/Win
machine but will be shown 'reverted' on either a Mac or Linux based system.
