Arabic text excerpt without ligatures and wrong parentheses on OS/X.

Arabic texts are using ligatures which are no more displayed in OpenOffice =
3.3
(pick up whatever text in Google translate to Arabic, it will be well
displayed, copy and paste into OpenOffice and you will understand how lette=
rs
are single letters and not ligatures).=20

It was a main advantage over Microsoft Office to have it well displayed.

It is not related to the fonts.

On LibreOffice ligatures are OK but when mixing parentheses they are echoed
)45( wrongly (numbers are left to right in Arabic even if the text is right=
 to
left).

Only neooffice seems to have something similar to previous Linux and Windows
OpenOffice versions.
