create arabic pdf

hi
 Anybody knows how to Create PDF with Arabic words? 

Seems FOP-0.20.5(cocoon use it in its pdf serializer) cannot handle Arabic glyphs/ligature properly. It can only display the Arabic characters but the rules to ligate them together cannot be displayed.
also it show chars from left to right but  arabic is a right to left language 

suggestion??
