Fix Arabic text in Safari and Mail with Office 2004
Authored by: Uncle Asad on Aug 16, '04 05:51:35PM

Sad and very Microsoftian that Office, which doesn't support Arabic on the Mac, breaks Arabic support in Apple apps.

I'm not a big Mail user, but I always thought Safari was smart enough to grab missing characters from other fonts. If I view a page with an obsucre character, that character tends to show up in Lucida Grande (since LG tends to have the most complete set of non-CJK Unicode characters) while the rest of the page remains in Times New Roman. Something sounds a bit off yet.
