The [http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0600.pdf Unicode block for Arabic] is U+0600-U+06FF. There are two other blocks for Arabic Presentation Forms. They are included in Unicode because they were present in earlier standards from other sources. Almost all of these forms can be generated by software that correctly handles Arabic ligatures. The forms that cannot be generated in the desired manner in word processing software should normally appear as graphics anyway. |

Arabic is fully supported in many Linux distributions. There is much less support for other languages using the Arabic alphabet, such as Farsi in Iran; Azeri in Azerbaijan; Pashto, Dari and others in Afghanistan; and Urdu and others in Pakistan. The letters for all of these languages and more are included in Unicode.

The Unicode block for Arabic is U+0600-U+06FF. There are two other blocks for Arabic Presentation Forms. They are included in Unicode because they were present in earlier standards from other sources. Almost all of these forms can be generated by software that correctly handles Arabic ligatures. The forms that cannot be generated in the desired manner in word processing software should normally appear as graphics anyway.
