Dear Paige,

Universal Word is a word processor that does not require an
Arabic operating System, it works with any language Windows.
OnePen Editor will insert any language, such as Arabic, in any
language application. In other words, insert Arabic lines/words
in your MS Word or CorelDraw document.

Most of Universal Word multilingual word processor allow
transliteration (I do not know which Font). For example,

Malay-Jawi, Pashto, Urdu, Transliteration, Int'l Phonetic $169.00
