Here 3 screenshots with the KDE-3.0 head menu. The hebrew and arabic
screenshot are done with  Mark Leisher ClearlyU fonts (Roman Czyborra
has also done Unicode font which cover a very large part of the
unicode). The Japanese menu is done with the Bitstream Cyberbit ttf
which contains a big part of the unicode (Roman, Cyrillic, Greek,
Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, Korean, Japanese ...etc!!). 
Mikhael is the hebrew menu ok?
Nadim is the arabic menu ok?
Can some one can comment on the Japanese menu?
