Uh, the master for Farsi is in HTML, not in text format, which is what
you supplied.  See doc/src/FAQ/FAQ_farsi.html.

The reason it was removed from the web site is that it isn't
HTML-compliant enough for our web site.  Things like:

    <font face="Tahoma">

are clearly incorrect for our site.  Why can't we get a valid Farsi
translation of our existing main HTML FAQ?  It seems every version that
comes in Farsi is in a strange Microsoft format or something.  The
version you sent me in text looks strange too.  I don't know if it is
the same person sending the same incorrect version, or some style of
HTML for Farsi that we don't use.

For example, if I look at the Chinese version of our FAQ, it has the
same format as our FAQ, except it is in Chinese.  We have never gotten a
Farsi version that has similar characteristics, and until we do, it
isn't going to appear on the web site.
