I found that the problem is that the current composition for Arabic requires that a whole word must be composed. So, if there's a face change within a word, Arabic composition function is given just a partial word, and that results in the incorrect Arabic shaping. This is a difficult problem, and I need a time to find a solution. --- Kenichi Handa handa@m17n.org
