Description:

ArabTeX is a TeX macro package with associated Naskh fonts designed to generate
the Arabic writing from texts coded in an ASCII transliteration as well as in
some other popular encodings for Arabic and Hebrew, e.g. ASMO 449, ISO 8859-6
(ASMO 708), Arabic Windows encoding, and HED. It is compatible with Plain TeX,
LaTeX, NFSS, and the EDMAC package. It also cooperates well with LaTeX 2e of
June 1996 or later. There is some support for Persian, Urdu, Pashto, and
Sindhi. Unicode Arabic and Hebrew support is present but not extensively
tested.

The version 3.11d supports vowelized and non-vowelized Hebrew, and
bidirectional line-breaking within insertions. The former limitation that an
insertion must fit on the current line no more exists.
