Calibri字体在MS Word中无法显示阿拉伯文的问题求助

Hey there! Let’s work through this tricky problem—since Calibri displays Arabic just fine on your friend’s laptop, we know the font itself supports the script. The issue is almost certainly tied to your system or Word’s specific settings. Here are actionable steps to fix it:

1. Verify Word’s Language & Paragraph Direction Settings #

• Open Word, go to File > Options > Language.
• Make sure Arabic is added as an editing language. If not, click Add Language, find Arabic, and install it.
• Select Arabic and click Set as Default for editing language (this ensures Word prioritizes Arabic script handling).
• Highlight the Arabic text, then head to the Home tab’s Paragraph group—click the Right-to-Left Direction button (looks like a paragraph with text aligned right). You can also right-click the text, choose Paragraph, and confirm the text direction is set to right-to-left.
• Open the Font dialog box (Ctrl+D), go to the Advanced tab, and check that Character set is set to Arabic or Unicode (UTF-8).

2. Fix Windows Regional & Language Configurations #

• Open Windows Settings > Time & Language > Language & Region.
• Add Arabic as a preferred language, then click Options to ensure the language pack, keyboard, and handwriting support are fully installed (even if you’ve done this before, double-check—partial installs can cause glitches).
• Click Administrative language settings (under Related settings), go to the Language for non-Unicode programs tab, click Change system locale, select an Arabic region (like Arabic (Saudi Arabia)), then restart your PC. Note: This might affect some older non-Unicode apps, but you can revert it later if needed.

3. Reset Word’s Default Settings (Fix Corrupted Configs) #

• Close all Word windows, press Win + R to open Run, type winword /safe, and hit Enter to launch Word in Safe Mode. Test if Arabic displays correctly here—if yes, the issue is with add-ins or corrupted settings.
  • To disable add-ins: Go to File > Options > Add-ins, set Manage to COM Add-ins, click Go, uncheck all add-ins, then restart Word.
  • To fully reset Word: Open Registry Editor (regedit), navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\<your Word version>\Word (e.g., 16.0 for Office 2019/365), right-click the Word key, select Delete (back up the registry first!), then restart Word to rebuild default settings.

4. Recheck Font File Integrity & Permissions #

• Navigate to C:\Windows\Fonts, find Calibri, right-click it, and select Properties. Go to the Security tab and confirm your user account has Read & Execute permissions.
• If permissions are okay, try copying Calibri’s font files from your friend’s laptop (ensure you have the right to do this per Microsoft’s licensing) and install them on your PC by right-clicking the files and selecting Install as administrator—this ensures the font is properly registered with elevated permissions.

5. Repair Microsoft Office Installation #

• If the issue persists across all Office apps (try Excel/PowerPoint with Calibri Arabic), open Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features.
• Find your Microsoft Office installation, right-click it, select Change, then choose Quick Repair (faster) or Online Repair (more thorough). Wait for the repair to finish, then restart your PC and test again.
