I observed that the maximum choices on my PC were via "Rich Text", a lot fewer choices using Plain Text. I have no Arabic fonts on my PC to try, sorry. If you have the font installed within Windows-Fonts, you should be able to access and use it using Rich Text. If that does not work, talk to Tech Support on Monday.

Not sure about Windows but Arabic does work on the MAC , I assume it's the same for Windows. First older Arabic fonts will not work. Be sure you are using the correct technology. AAT for MAC and I think Truetype for Windows. Then you must use the correct keyboard input buffer as Arabic uses Unicode points in the range above ASCII. Not sure how to select the proper one in Windows But I'm sure Chief's TS can walk you through it on monday. Chief's Text boxes do support Unicode now so it should work there on any machine. Will not work with Ruby text macros as Unicode is not passed through correctly so don't try that.
