Ahmad, using the applyshaping=1 is working now (I don't know why it didn't 
work before) and consequently the shaping is working too. At the moment the 
kasra is being returned as its original value (650). Is this how it is 
supposed to be or should it be returning the presentation form (and which one 
- fe7a or fe7b, and what's the difference??)
