Dear Nadim:

        Thank you for your help !  I did go to Mozilla and selected the
utf-8 encoding.  That allowed me to view Arabic text, though for the most
part too small to be read easily.  I cannot print or reply in Arabic ?
Should I be able to do so ?   How.

        Thank you again for all you do.

Peace !              John D. McBride
