Nota Bene’s Arabic, Farsi and Urdu module(s) are included in the Lingua add-on module, and can be used in the word processor proper, in Ibidem bibliographic databases, and in Orbis (free-form text retrieval)
Included in each module is everything you need to work in that language:
Keyboard files (both a national and a mnemonic layout for each language)

(keyboards can be customized using a menu)
Automatic right-to-left typing and editing
Language/alphabet switching keyboard shortcuts
Rendering tables for highest quality placement of accents

Automatic contextualization of character forms (initial, medial, final, standalone)
Manual override of automatic contextualization
Special zero-width joiner and non-joiner characters
