    Hi Pragash,
    This is because the font that is used does not support arabic characters. You can load a font that does, but because the PDF engine (dompdf) does not support RTL. Effectively this means that you can’t print invoices in arabic.

    I’m sorry I don’t have any better news for you!

    Hi,
    Unfortunately it is not a limitation of the plugin but of the PDF library. It would be possible to solve this by switching to another PDF library, but that’s the equivalent of swapping the engine of a car – it’s far from trivial and has many consequences for the templates (especially custom templates that people use). At this point I have no intention of doing this. I may add support for a second PDF library in the future, but that doesn’t help you right now…
