    Hello Pierre,

    It turns out that all the fonts I have at hand do not have italic
    outlines for Arabic.It looks like Arabic doesn't use italic to
    emphasize text at all (but I'm not an expert here).

    Best regards,

    >> ArialMT Italic and ArialMT BoldItalic have no glyphs for Arabic
    >> characters at all. It turns out to be a limitation of this font.
    PD> Ok, that's why...
    PD> By the way, do you know an italic font which has glyphs for Arabic
    PD> characters?

    PD> Best regards
    PD> Pierre
