Hi,

Generally speaking, there is nothing special that you need to do.

By default, NowSMS expects text to be specified in the UTF-8 character set. If you use the NowSMS web interface, those forms are configured to tell the web browser to submit the text in UTF-8.

If you are submitting via HTTP directly, it is also possible to use Arabic text directly, however you should include "&charset=iso-8859-6" in the URL request to indicate that the text is encoded in the iso-8859-6 (Arabic) character set instead of the default UTF-8.

For received SMS, there is a "Character Set" option in the "2-way" configuration dialog, where you can select the character set that NowSMS should use when delivering text to your application.
