Dear Peter, Both volumes of the Kazimirski dictionary are available in several versions and formats from the Internet Archive. See: http://www.archive.org/details/dictionnaireara00goog http://www.archive.org/details/dictionnaireara01goog http://www.archive.org/details/dictionnairearab01bibeuoft http://www.archive.org/details/dictionnairearab02bibeuoft The OCR version which is the 'full text' format is riddled with errors and does not feature a comprehensible Arabic script no matter how one tries to change the encoding of the page. Not much help I'm afraid, but for your information nonetheless. Best wishes, Alasdair Watson -----Original Message----- From: Circulation list for MELCOM UK [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Peter Colvin Sent: 14 July 2010 13:04 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Digitised Arabic dictionaries Dear Colleagues, As part of the YS-IMG (Yale-SOAS Islamic Manuscript Project) we are planning to OCR digitised versions of either Biberstein Kazimirski's Dictionnaire arabe-francais of Dozy's Supplement aux dictionnaires arabes.
