Append "&B" to the PO file and recompile it.
The only Arabic I see is ar_EG in the official languages.

Attached is a recompilation with some of the &B / &C elements added to the right of the translations since this is a RTL script. Try it and provide feedback. It will be useful to the devs to alter non latin scripts to accommodate such uniform access keys irrespective of the language.

Paste the contents of the file lang/languages_installed.inc

Do you have access to the linux command line interface? If so, paste the output of the command:

locale -a

If the German language is not present (de_DE), then enable it with:

sed -i -e 's/# de_DE UTF-8/de_DE UTF-8/' /etc/locale.gen
dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=noninteractive locales

Using the Generic Text Only Printer Driver to generate the documents before printing to DMPs may be an option.

1. Create a Supplier
2. If your Supplier Currency is different from the home currency, then see that you have an exchange rate acquired for it.
3. Create an Item supplied by the supplier (possibly with prices populated)
4. Create a Purchase Invoice for the Item from the Supplier and get it into your stock (Direct Purchase Invoice is the easiest)

If you still cannot create the Purchase Invoice, then try to create a company with the en_US-demo.sql and see if you can create a supplier invoice there for an existing supplier and revert.

The language translation files for Arabic did not include the English shortcuts as you may want to use some other letter in Arabic instead of &B.... in English. If you still wish to retain the English Access keys then encode it to precede the Arabic language text translation and compile your Arabic .mo file accordingly.

If the said elax_tax_support_files are not proprietary / commercial you can post it here for peer review and possible inclusion into the core.

Which version of FA and Chart of Accounts are you using?

Your costing tables and inventory movements too may need to be changed.

Check the locales installed in the linux server. you may have to go to the linux command line interface (PuTTY, Terminal, etc) and issue commands for including the german locale.

@elax's 0VAT fix is not part of the core. Where is elax's 0VAT fix and when and where is it used?

What Access key do you mean? Is it a translatable string that is present in Arabic as some unprintable characters? Does the "Access key" re-appear when you switch back to English?

Compare the backups and check the changes that may have occurred to the sys_prefs table records for default language.
It is also possible that someone de-activated the German language from the lang/installed_languages.inc file.

In order to
1. study the implementation of TCPDF in FA 
2. and attempt to update it to some later version
3. and / or backporting some fixes / functionality
4. without increasing bloat as referred to in a post by @itronics,
I have started a separate GitHub Repo for the same.

It starts with the the raw TCPDF v4.0.027 that is the base version used in FA and then traverses the changes in it thereafter. These commits are certainly there in the official Github repo but not bunched together.

https://github.com/apmuthu/TCPDF_FA

Anyone having the ligatures for Tamil?

1. Why was arialunicid0.php removed from reporting/fonts folder? Does the current cid0XX.php files from the TCPDF project replace them?

2. Any examples of Indic fonts being successfully used for reporting in FA?

3. FreeSans.ttf needs to be added to the reporting/fonts/ folder since it is the default used for unicode in reporting/includes/class.graphic.inc in line 160, now that everything is going unicode... The said font can be taken from the GNU Project Archives.

4. $UTF8_fontfile defined in config.php needs to have the font file (TTF/OTF, etc) in the reporting/fonts/ folder as well but that is an enduser choice of override.

5. Complex Ligatures as in Indic Scripts (Hindi/Devanagri, Tamil, etc) are discussed here for Jasper Reports and developed for PDF Export using the Open Office Library here. Using Java with iText for Indic Scripts is discussed here. Indic Script usage in Jasper Reports using Unicode is discussed here.

@peter: Thanks for the feedback. Often times, users solve their issues but fail to report the solution and others must traverse the same path again....

Attached is the latest full PO that needs the blank strings to bear the translations. Use NotePad++ and choose encoding to be UTF-8 without BOM.

The file is also in my unofficial GitHub repo.

@peter: please compare your CoA with that of the standard sql/en_US-new.sql for field order differences and correct them to match the latter. Many CoAs are "broken" and some like the en_GB are corrected in my unofficial GitHub Repo.

Upload the file anywhere and paste the url here. @joe needs to give you upload rights.

Updated the Tamil language files in my GitHub Repo with 322/2997 strings translated.

Make sure that the dejavu fonts are installed.

Upload to lang folder and append to array in lang/languages_installed.inc file as in first post in this thread.

In Debian Squeeze, Tamil fonts are installed with:

apt-get install ttf-tamil-fonts
sed -i -e 's/# ta_IN UTF-8/ta_IN UTF-8/' /etc/locale.gen
dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=noninteractive locales

Setup => Display Setup
Set your decimal and thousands separators.

Which menu navigation sequence are you not able to enter more than 999 in the item price field?
Which version of FA are you using?
What platform are you on?

Attached is a screenshot on FireFox 37.0.2 using FA 2.3.24+ on Windows that seems okay.

Which browser are you using - try FireFox. Also manually try to download the files from the repo like:

http://anonymous:password@repo.frontaccounting.eu/2.3/Release.gz

It is possible in FireFox but not in MS IE 8.

The devs would need to code it into FA 2.4 before it becomes available.
