\chapter{Arabic}

Let's start with admitting that I don't speak or read Arabic, and the sample
texts used here are part of what we use in the Oriental \TEX\ project for
exploring advanced Arabic typesetting. This chapter will not discuss arab
typesetting in much detail, but should be seen as complementing the \quote
{Onthology on Arabic Typesetting} written by Idris. Here I will only show what
the consequences are of applying features. Because we see glyphs but often still
deal with characters when analyzing what to do, we will use these terms mixed.

The font that we use here is the \quote {arabtype} font by MicroSoft. This font
covers Latin scripts and Arabic and has a rich set of features. It's also a rather
big font, so it is a nice torture test for \LUATEX.

First we show what \MKIV\ does with a sequence of characters when no features
are enabled by the user. We have turn on color tracing. This gives us some
feedback about the how the analyze worked out. Analyzing for Arabic boils down
to marking the initial, mid, final and isolated forms. We don't need to
explicitly enable analyzing, it's on by default. The \type {mode} flag is set
to \type {node} because we cannot use \TEX's default mechanism. When \LUATEX\
and \MKIV\ are beyond beta stage, we will use that mode by default.

\ShowArabSample {arab-none}

Once these forms are identified, the \type {init}, \type {medi}, \type {fina}
and \type {isol} features can be applied since they need this information. As
you can see, different shapes show up. The vowels (marks in \OPENTYPE\ speak)
are not affected. It may not be entirely clear here, but these vowels don't have
width.

\ShowArabSample {arab-compose}

We start with some preparations with regards to combinations of marks. This
is really needed in order to get the right output.

\ShowArabSample {arab-replace}

The order in which features are applied is dictated by the font and users don't
need to bother about it. In the next example we enable the \type {mark} and
\type {mkmk} features. As with other positioning related features, these are
normally applied late in the feature chain.

\ShowArabSample {arab-mark}

The \type {mark} feature positions marks (vowels) relative to characters, also
known as mark to base. The \type {mkmk} feature positions marks to basemarks.

\ShowArabSample {arab-mkmk}

Kerning depends on the font. Some fonts don't need kerning, others may need
extensive relative positioning of characters (by now glyphs).

\ShowArabSample {arab-kern}

So far we only had rather straightforward replacements. More sophisticated
replacements are those driven by the context. In principle all replacements
can be context driven, but the \type {calt} and \type {clig} features are
normally dedicated to the real complex ones that take preceding and following
characters into account.

\ShowArabSample {arab-context}

Ligatures are often used to beautify Arabic typeset documents. Here we enable the
whole lot.

\ShowArabSample {arab-ligs}

Kerning deals with horizontal displacements, but \type {curs} (cursive) goes one
step further. As with marks, positioning is based on anchor points and resolving
them involves a bit of trickery because one needs to take into account that
characters may have vowels attached to them.

\ShowArabSample {arab-curs}

One script can serve multiple languages so let's see what happens when we switch to
Urdu.

\ShowArabSample {arab-urdu}

In practice one will enable most of the features. In \MKIV\ one can define feature
sets as follows:

\starttyping
\definefontfeature
  [arab-default]
  [mode=node,language=dflt,script=arab,
   init=yes,medi=yes,fina=yes,isol=yes,
   liga=yes,dlig=yes,rlig=yes,clig=yes,
   mark=yes,mkmk=yes,kern=yes,curs=yes]
\stoptyping

Applying these features to fonts can be done in several ways, with as most basic
one:

\starttyping
\font\ArabFont=arabtype*arab-default at 18pt
\stoptyping

Normally one will do something like

\starttyping
\definefont[ArabFont][arabtype*arab-default at 18pt]
\stoptyping

or use typescripts to set up ap proper font collection, in which case we end
up with definitions that look like:

\starttyping
\definefontsynonym[ArabType][name:arabtype][features=arab-default]
\definefontsynonym[Serif][ArabType]
\stoptyping

More information about typescripts can be found in manuals and on the
\CONTEXT\ wiki.

We end this chapter with showing two arabic fonts so that you can get a taste
if the differences: arabtype by MicroSoft and Palatino which is designed by
Herman Zapf for Linotype.

\def\ArabSampleFont{arabtype} \ShowArabSample {arab-default}

\def\ArabSampleFont{name:palatinoltarabic} \ShowArabSample {arab-default}

These fonts are quite different in designsize:
