Hi Sineau,
First, there is no Arabic range in FreeSans. Your sample is from some other font.
All the Arabic in the FreeFont family is in the Serif face.
Could it be so simple, as adding lookups to replace the isolated form of the letters
with their initial, median, and final forms?
Well, those lookups were missing. This isn't a surprise: I put the lookups for Arabic
in myself, using whatever resources I could find, and probably wasn't aware that the
Persian ones weren't in the lists I was using.
OK so the change is in CVS. In principle you could get it from there.
If you would like to help, let's move the discussion over to the FreeFont bugs list.
See you there!
