Can't Read Arabic Fonts in Web Browser

#1 Post by ibnturab »

Hi guys,
I'm new to Linux[x1week] and i'm trying this out with Puppy.

I am having trouble reading pages that have Arabic language fonts. I've played around with Opera/mozilla but the script remains jumbled up and the characters are not recognizable. Is there a way I can add these fonts to puppy ?

Thanks a lot
