It's hard to tell what's going on without having access to the properties file; if you email it to me I can take a look.

I got it, but I'm having problems getting JForum to use it. Even after setting Arabic as the board default language it isn't used by JForum, and doesn't show up in my profile settings. Not sure what's going on.

In general I would say it's better to encode the language files using the \uWXYZ notation you see in Russian file, amongst others. While some files use accented characters (Portuguese, for example), those tend to cause problems.
