I installed Ubuntu 12.10 new install just 3-4 weeks ago. It comes with unity.
I'm having trouble reading Pashto in the browsers or the title bars. The letters that are in addition to Arabic don't connect and change shapes. To me it seems like a font problem. Perhaps the default font in the browsers does not support Pashto? I tested on many websites and apparently it only works fine on BBC Pashto page. They might be using a different font that supports Pashto but website which aren't declaring a font to use, the website picks up the default font and it doesn't work properly.
How can we fix this issue?

The Pashto specific letters don't seem to connect while the ones common with Arabic language do.
