Hello.
Please change the font for files written in Arabic in your OnlyOffice software. The best font that should be set as default is: Noto Sans Arabic or Noto Naskh Arabic
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the suggestion. Since different operating systems come with different font sets, the editors display the fonts available on the system. Setting a single default Arabic font across all installations isn’t feasible at this time.
However, you can install Noto Sans Arabic or Noto Naskh Arabic on your system and set it as the default in your template:
