why all Arabic regional formats uses US numerals

Question

As language source is set to Arabic system should output ٠ ١ ٢ ٣ instead of 0 1 2 3, noting that my regional formats are set to Arabic (jordan)

Answer 1

• In LibreOffice: Go to:

Tools > Options > Language settings > Complex text layout

Then choose context or Hindi instead of Arabic.

• In terminal:

Download this package, it's a .deb file; you can install it using:

sudo apt install ./name.deb (or sudo apt install /path/to/package/name.deb)

Answer 2

This worked for me in Ubuntu 20

1. Go to setting
2. Choose region & language
3. In input sources click the +
4. Choose from Arabic(Jordan) Arabic(qwerty/digits)
5. Remove the old Arabic language from garbage icon that in its raw

That's all. Problem should be fixed system wide now. This idea I take it from this answer

Answer 3

Instead of using the generic Arabic keyboard layout use one that has Eastern Arabic numerals in it.

For example, I use MATE desktop environment so I would:

• invoke keyboard preferences either by using the command mate-keyboard-properties or choose Keyboard from the Control Center then
• choose the Layouts tab, you'll get the screenshot below then
• press the Add button and add the Arabic Arabic (Eastern Arabic numerals) keyboard layout
