OS: Ubuntu Feisty (7.04)

In Gedit program, when typing Arabic characters (using SCIM or pasting them), they are not shown and printed properly.
If the fonts setting in Gedit is changed from "Monospace" font to "Sans", the problem disappear (Monospace is the default mono-space font in Ubuntu Gnome).

This problem also happen with Mozilla Thunderbird (both problems, showing and printing), when typing Arabic characters using SCIM or pasting them in the mail editor in "Fixed width" mode, and disappear in "Variable width" mode.
