I installed sakr software for Unicode fonts but somehow whenever I need to forward them it only allows 70 charac per message. I thought that was normal untill it sent 27 letters in english as two messages duplicated.
Has anyone exper this problem with sakr fonts

its not a problem thats how unicode is supposed to work. it just depends on what exactly those characters were.if it was a flashing message then you would expect it to be 2 messages for 27 characters.its not a problem

these messges were sent from a nokia that has arabic support. Even symbian nokia phones can recieve them ok resend as one message. why does se arabic font need more messages to send the same length message?
I installed Sman with Freetype and now I can change between languages ok. I even tried a few TTF from windows, just dropped into the fonts lib and they work ok.
If anyone knows of arabic font that would send normal lenght messages please let me know

That's the way unicode works. Each charachter in the unicode language takes double the storage since it is interpreted as a double-byte.
I would hazard a guess that your English charachters are taking 4 bytes to store based on some strange translation into unicode and back.
I am sure about the first part of this reply and guessing at the second!
