I have been trying to find software which would allow me to convert Windows DOC files to a readable format on my Dell Axim - they are books which use multiple languages - English being the primary text, however also Arabic and perhaps Farsi and Urdu.

I have tried software such as Repligo, however they are still not supporting full Arabic text - in 'full screen' mode it looks ok, however when you want to zoom in and read it is normal text, the Arabic comes out left to right (rather than right to left) and other such issues.

Thanks

Have your tried the Read In Word add-in for Word 2002 or Word 2003? It can convert Word documents to Microsoft Reader format. Microsoft Reader is available here. I have no experience with the Read In Word add-in with languages other than English, however.

Greetings,
Just as I suspected - and also read on the Microsoft site after installing the software - that it is not compatible with Arabic...

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

The only other option that I can think of is turning it into a pdf. One cheap way to do this right now is just download the Office 2007. There is an option to save as PDF.

I use Haali to read Hebrew text documents. Hebrew is also right-to-left, as you probably know. The documents are justified to the Left (even when I chose Full Justify), but other than that it's fine. And free
