Font not displayed correctly

Without the letter "i" and having to rely on sounds that I don't know, this became an impossible task for me.

I was playing around with the RPG-arabic font and detected at least 3 repeated pairs:

Q and G,

F and V,

P and C

"Lower case is latin, upper case is arabic" - It looks really good that way!

Well I did say, probably gibberish to an arabic speaker Wink
Looking at that old "equivalent sounds" chart there are some that do not exist, C for example. Then there are some arabic forms that "double-up" seen or sahd are both S as well as sheen = sh 
To add to the mix, there are different forms depending on position in the word. None of these I have taken into account.  Missing an "i" not uncommon I used to work here: Abqaiq (Arabic: بقيق, romanized: Biqayq) also Buqayq try a "y"

   

That font looks very "classical", the sort of thing from old documents, different from modern written arabic.

   

In English you can generally scramble the message and still be understandable, not always true for other languages.
At one stage I thought you might be packing luggage for a trip East. Have fun.
