Apple used to make the described keyboard covers about ten years ago.  I
think that earlier "language kit" software also came with them.

Dear Colleagues,

I'm writing to see if anyone can recommend a keyboard overlay for Arabic
on a standard PC QWERTY keyboard. I've had a look on the web and have
only seen keyboard stickers.  Do full removable (plastic?) keyboard
overlays exist?
What I had in mind was to purchase a couple that could be used by
students in the lab when required then removed and returned when they
are through with it. Presumably there are variant Arabic keyboard
layouts (e.g., Algerian, AQWERTY, etc.).  Is there one in particular
that would be recommended?  Thanks in advance for whatever advice you
can give.  Jack
