Farsi has to be installed manually into XP from the XP Disc.
Everything is allready in the DVDWorkshop format, so no need for the subtitle workshop to convert. Also the Farsi file you linked to is only a text file for the gui and not for the subtitles and no unicode support from the subtitle Workshop.
BTW: How do i get a unicode formated file into a "normal" text file?
The Problem is that there is no Farsi support from Ulead yet:
Sorry for the inconvenience. DVD Workshop 2.2 or later versions support Unicode for subtitles, so it's necessary to input the correct CS ID in the subtitle attribute to display other translated languages correctly after they have been imported. You may refer to the procedure below:
Export the TXT file after you finish one language subtitle in DVD Workshop 2.
Open the exported TXT file and paste the translated characters to replace the original ones.
Locate the last section with the #Subtitle text attribute begin and #Subtitle text attribute end.
Between the #Subtitle text attribute begin and end, there are three settings which you will need to be aware of:
(1) /FN: means font name. Please check the font type list in DVD Workshop 2 and fill out the font name you need. For example, Arial.
(2) /CS: means character set. Please enter the appropriate code in the ID (CS) field which stands for different languages from the following table. For example, to create Hebrew subtitles, you need to change the CS ID to 177.
(3) /FS: means font size. This defines the font size you need. For example, 30.
After you replace the translated characters and change the proper settings for FN, CS and FS, save as the TXT file to the other file name.
Import the saved as file to DVD Workshop 2 to complete other language subtitle editing.

Hey Ulead any chance to get Farsi support? Otherwise we have to shift over the whole project to an other software, which is a heck of work.
