Hi Otared,
I have been very interested in using XeTeX for Arabic script in
conTeXt. However, my attempts at doing this have all failed, mainly
because I don't understand how the XeTeX font declarations should work
inside the preamble of a conTeXt document.
So, like Musa, I would be very interested in seeing a sample document,
if you would be willing to share.
Best,
Fred Hoyt
