Trouble printing in Farsi - prints in Arabic script but not the right words

I run WinXP + Office 2000 Pro and I am having problems printing Farsi scripts. My printer is a Lexmark Z52. I also have a HP PSC 500, but both print the scripts wrong. It prints in Arabic script but not the right words.
Any ideas?
Thank you

Check the language icon on your task bar

Have you installed Farsi support for your windows? Can you see the Farsi language among the languages supported by your windows? Press the language icon on the right side of your task bar, if you do not see it, you should install Farsi. I also suggest you use Office XP with Windows XP. I did that as I had some problems when I used Office 2000 with Windows XP.
Best regards,

Farsi support
Jan 27, 2003
Yes, Farsi is included in the list and I could also use the keyboard if I wanted to as it allows me to switch between languages.
I can open the doc and visualise the script but the problem arises when I send the doc to the printer... it prints different letters...
thanks

Three things you might do:
1. Select and install Farsi support in your PC\'s \"regional settings.\"

2. Check what Farsi TTF fonts are provided and installed when you added Farsi support (probably three or four at most; I can send some good Farsi fonts that work well inside my XP).
3. Find and and print the layout for the Farsi keyboard diagram (saves doing a lot of keyboard mapping to find the right combinations of keystrokes).
