There isn't any answer, word can't do arabic. You have to use a
different app, such as Mellel, TextEdit, Nisus, NeoOffice, AbiWord,
etc.

Hi Hani Ali:

Microsoft Word cannot read Arabic on the Macintosh.

You need a copy of Word 2007.

You can run Office 2007 on a Mac in Parallels, if you have an Intel Mac.

So you need to buy:
1) Windows XP
2) Parallels
3) Office 2007.

Sorry, it is expensive! But it will work very well.

Hope this helps
