A cursive script by design
Arabic letters join within words and take up to four contextual forms (initial, medial, final, isolated) — printed Arabic is inherently cursive. Recognition must segment joined strokes into letters and read right-to-left; that is precisely what the Arabic model does.
Documents across a region
Contracts and government papers from the Gulf and North Africa, religious and academic texts, business correspondence — plus the diacritics (تشكيل) question: most modern documents omit them, and recognition handles both styles.
