- When writing in Arabic in Writer, spelling suggestions appear as square characters. For example, when writing the first letters of a weekday (السبت), a small pop-up which have square characters appears. When I press Enter, the weekday is inserted correctly.
- So, I believe that Writer correctly recognises Arabic words but only fails to display them properly. Probably an encoding problem with displaying these pop-up spelling suggestions.

  When writing in Arabic in Writer, spelling suggestions appear as
  square characters. For example, when writing the first letters of a
  weekday (السبت), a small pop-up which have square characters appears.
  When I press Enter, the weekday is inserted correctly.

  So, I believe that Writer correctly recognises Arabic words but only
  fails to display them properly. Probably an encoding problem with
  displaying these pop-up spelling suggestions.

  It also happens in the auto-complete pop-up.

  It also happens in the Undo tooltips. When the mouse pointer is on the
  Undo icon, the tooltip appears as square characters instead of the
  Arabic word.
