After running xetex on a document to test a new arabic opentype font I got
a final pdf document with completely mixed up characters (brought from the
wrong codepoints and with wrong positioning). You can inspect the output
in the file attached. The source looks like:

\TeXXeTstate=1
\everypar={\setbox0=\lastbox \beginR \box0 }
%\input testfontavailability
%\font\taha="KFGQPCUthmanTahaNaskh:script=arab" at 14pt
\font\taha="KFGQPCUthmanTahaNaskh"
\taha
%\char"0628\char"0633\char"0645
%\vskip12pt
\centerline{\beginR

\endR}
����� ��� �� �������� ������� ������� ��� ���� �������� ����� ���� ����
��� ����� ��������

\bye


I will appreciate any kind suggestions?



Hi Abdulrahman:

I'm not familiar with using XeTeX, but it looks like you've loaded the font *without* the script=arab (you have another line commented with that, but the one you're using doesn't).

HTH.
