URW Design and Development holds the copyright of the included Latin font which is donated under GPL by URW.Weve collected fonts for Photoshop, logos, design projects, and more.My guess is that you are choosing fonts that dont have Farsi charactersglyphs, so NeoOffice is substituting a font that does include Farsi characters for the one you choose.So I downloaded OO, and I was very excited to see that OO handles this task with no problem.
I opened my first new document and started typing some farsi gibberish just to see if OO properly rendered the text, for example. That looks good because all the letters are connected properly. MS Word yielded something like this:, where as you can see, all the letters are separated instead of connected. ![]() WHY Also, a friend of mine just downloaded OO for the same purpose as me and he is getting the bad separated version of Persian. The best, by far, word processor for multi-lingual support is Mellel. When I combine English, Greek, and Hebrew, Mellel is my choice. I installed NeoOffice, once the installation was completed the OpenOffice start working properly and the farsi letters were connected. I hope this issue will be resolved in MS-Office,even though OpenOffice is a great product. But I ended up here when searching for a solution to my problem: FarsiArabic text does not connect properly in OpenOffice Mac version. I wanted to post the solution I found so anyone else can google and find it. The default font is Tahoma which does not connect the letters. Arial does not connect them either, and neither does Times New Roman. I switched to Apple Chancery because of the slightly extra padding around the words. Easier to read for a newb like myself.) Verdana is a font that Ive seen often enough which also connects the letters. I have to write reports in Farsi for school all the time and it is a hassle to constantly change my font any time I change my language. Go here: OpenOffice.org - Preferences - OpenOffice.org Writer - Basic Fonts CTL. The default is having all of the fonts Tahoma, which does not connect. Change all of the values to a font of your choosing which does connect the FarsiArabic letters correctly and voila Any time you change languages while typing it will now use your newly set default font and it saves me a step from changing it every time I start a new document. On menu bar go to OpenOffice.orgPreferencesOpenOffice.org WriterBasic Fonts and set to font you prefer. You can also set up a new template and make it your default.

Also, make sure that the fonts you want to use actually include Farsi charactersglyphs If they are showing up in Font Book, they should be working in NeoOffice.
