When justifying Arabic script, the glyph named Kashida is inserted between the characters of a word and extends the width of the word. XSL Formatter supports the justification by inserting Kashida from V2.3. V3 also support text-kashida-space, this property specifies the percentage of Kashida in Arabic.

Sample (XSL Formatter V3) 13.2 This chapter will describe some of the common problems that arise in setting technical material and will suggest ways in which these problems can be solved or circumvented. It is intended for authors unfamiliar with techniques of typesetting and for copyeditors not blessed with a mathematical background. For more on typesetting and printing in general see chapter l9. 13.3 The advent of sophisticated phototypesetting systems, including both photomechanical and CRT systems, has revolutionized the setting of mathematical copy in recent years. Many expressions and arrangements of expressions that formerly were impossible or very difficult to set are now relatively easy to achieve. Not every manuscript involving mathematical expressions is composed by such an advanced system, however, and authors and editors should have some idea what to expect of the particular typesetting system employed for the manuscript in hand. 13.4 Typesetting systems can be thought of as existing on four levels of sophistication in mathematical capabilities.

Es sei auch nie strittig gewesen, dass die Waffeninspektoren zurück in den Irak müssten, sagte der Kanzler.
