How Gigoo handles Arabic and bilingual documents

Every screen in English or Arabic, chosen by each person. Tax invoices and tax credit notes in English and Arabic, with both TRNs and the amount in words.

On screen

  • Each user chooses English or Arabic. The choice changes only their own screens.
  • In Arabic the whole screen reads right to left: menus, buttons and Gigoo's own messages.
  • Dates show as DD/MM/YYYY in both languages.
  • On your phone, in your browser, in English and Arabic. No app to install.

On paper

  • Documents print in the company's print language, set by the Owner: English and Arabic side by side (the default), English only, or Arabic only.
  • The page is the same whoever prints it, in whatever language they work.
  • Every document has your logo and company details in English and Arabic at the top, and your TRN.
  • Internal reports such as ledgers and the trial balance print in the reader's own language.

Can documents print in Arabic only?
