Class Name: Arabic Glyphs is a simple class to render Arabic text

Filename: Glyphs.php

Original Author(s): Khaled Al-Sham'aa <khaled@ar-php.org>

Purpose: This class takes Arabic text (encoded in Windows-1256 character set) as input and performs Arabic glyph joining on it and outputs a UTF-8 hexadecimals stream that is no longer logically arranged but in a visual order which gives readable results when formatted with a simple Unicode rendering just like GD and UFPDF libraries that does not handle basic connecting glyphs of Arabic language yet but simply outputs all stand alone glyphs in left-to-right order.
