The English/Arabic example I use in my classroom works with Antenna House but not with others I've tried. And it works not only with standalone strings but the example illustrates the strong/weak Unicode direction interaction and the use of <bidi-override>.
I hope this helps.

Does anyone know of a processor for converting XML and XSL to PDF that supports mixed English and Arabic text? In my current application, the Arabic text is always on its own within a table cell, so there is never mixed directionality within a block. FOP just gives me "#" symbols for any Arabic characters. The developers of the tool I usually use (which currently prints the characters, but left to right instead of right to left) have promised a fix, but I need a fallback option.
Hebrew has the same right-to-left issue, so if a tool works with Hebrew, it should work with Arabic.
