Hello All,

Does anyone have any experience getting Arabic to work in the Mac version of
Office?  I can get the letters to connect in TextEdit and in OpenOffice, but
Word refuses to play nicely in Mac. You can't import files from other
programs correctly or cut and paste, so I know it is not an input issue.

I have a professor who wants to grade papers from within Word, so this is a
real stumbling block.  At this point all the Mac users have to go to a
computer lab so that they can use a Windows machine.


Jon
