Hi Musa,
Yes I can use ConTeXt and XeTeX to write Arabic (actually Persian,
but there is no difference...), thanks to the efforts of Jonathan
Kew, Adam Lindsay and Hans Hagen.
But I have some problems using certain fonts (namely kamran) because
in long documents the spacing of letters and words is not correct and
I don't know how to fix it.
If you need any help I can give, do not hesitate to ask me.
Best regards: OK
