I used an additional plugin for arabic font long time back. But it didn't support half of the fonts i have.

What fonts do you use with the writing/word processor you normally use?  Whether they are TrueType fonts or Shape fonts chances are they may work with AutoCAD too.  Simply move the one(s) you like from your Windows fonts folder to your AutoCAD fonts folder and see what happens.

Hello tajamul, we are using arabic fonts named :
AKHBR.ttf and AKHBRBD.ttf on our DWG drawings ( only for making tittle blocks ) and it works.
I can upload an example on request but you will have to get those fonts and paste them at least in (C)\WINDOWS\Fonts ( I have them also in : (C)\Program files\AutoCAD 2008\Fonts ).
Give me your Email and I will send them to you.
