  34 # We are assuming that:
  35 # * Most fonts that claim to support an Arabic letter actually do so;
  36 # * Most modern text rendering software use OpenType tables, instead of
  37 #   directly using presentation forms.
  38 # * Some good Arabic fonts do not support codepoints for Arabic presentation
  39 #   forms.
  40 # Thus, we are switching to general forms of Arabic letters.
