Im unable to read/write arabic in writer or calc, nor read arabic file names
using openoffice.org3beta, running linux (ubuntu hardy).

Changing the font doesnt help, but extreme zoom out for print preview shows
text, and small font (font size 5 or less) shows text.

Exporting document to PDF shows arabic text.

OOo 2.4 works perfectly on the same installation
