The standard Arabic keyboard layout

This is the standard Macintosh Arabic keyboard. It lets you type all
Arabic characters in Normal and Shift positions. The top keyboard
row allows you to type Arabic numerals. They are displayed from
right to left, as on an Arabic typewriter.

The numeric keypad lets you type Arabic or European numerals
according to your settings (see the section “The Arabic Setting
Control Panel”). They are displayed from left to right.

Arabic keyboard layout for PowerBook computers

This layout is similar to the previous one except that it lets you
type European numerals from the top keyboard row when
“Use Arabic Numerals” is not selected in the Arabic Setting
control panel. It is recommended for use with Apple PowerBook
computers, which do not have a keypad integrated with
their keyboard.
