Arabic diacritics problem using Aspose words java

Aspose.Words Product Family

Dear,
When we are using Arabic diacritics the generated pdf output became different than word (little space added between arabic letters ).
I am using aspose-words-19.4-jdk17.jar , I also tried the latest version aspose-words-22.9-jdk16.jar but the same result.

com.aspose.words.Document doc;
try
{

	doc = new com.aspose.words.Document("C:/Users/muk/Desktop/Al Mohannad/AlMohannadTest.docx");
	doc.save("C:/Users/muk/Desktop/Al Mohannad/AlMohannadTest.pdf");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
	// TODO Auto-generated catch block
	e.printStackTrace();
}

@mukhan12 To get the correct output should should enable open type features. Try using code like the following:

Document doc = new Document("C:\\Temp\\in.docx");
// Set fonts sources
doc.setFontSettings(new FontSettings());
doc.getFontSettings().setFontsSources(new FontSourceBase[] {new SystemFontSource(), new FolderFontSource("C:\\Temp\\fonts", true)});
// Enable open type features.
doc.getLayoutOptions().setTextShaperFactory(com.aspose.words.shaping.harfbuzz.HarfBuzzTextShaperFactory.getInstance());

doc.save("C:\\Temp\\out.pdf");

Here is the output document produced on my side using the above code: out.pdf (9.1 KB)

If you use maven project, you can add reference to com.aspose.words.shaping.harfbuzz JAR using the following dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.aspose</groupId>
    <artifactId>aspose-words</artifactId>
    <version>22.9</version>
    <classifier>shaping-harfbuzz-plugin</classifier>
</dependency>

I am using jar file, where can i download jar file for shaping-harfbuzz-plugin ?
