I have had experience designing a site both in Japanese and Portugese and came across a similar issue.

I'm assuming you have the proper language packs installed on your machine so that you can view arabic letters in your "Standard Applications".

There are multiple solutions to your problem... Unicode Text, Embedding the Font, etc...
