Dear all,

we're the Digital Averroes Research Environment and we'd like to use citeline. But we have a problem: arabic transliterations.
For example:

_at_incollection{863,
                author = {Muḥammad ʿAbd al-Hādī ʾAbū Rīdah},
                title = {Mawāqif Ibn Rušd fī maǧālāt al-fikr al-dīnī wa-l-falsafī wa-l-ʿilmī wa-l-sīyāsī wa-l-ʾadabī},
                booktitle = {Muʾtamar Ibn Rušd},
                year = 1983,
                editor = {ʿAmmār Ṭālibī},
                pages = {271-314},
                adress = {Algier},
}

in utf8 in LaTeX is

_at_incollection{863,
        Adress = {Algier},
        Author = {Mu{\d h}ammad ʿAbd al-H{\=a}d{\=\i} ʾAb{\=u} R{\=\i}dah},
        Booktitle = {Muʾtamar Ibn Ru{\v s}d},
        Editor = {ʿAmm{\=a}r {\d T}{\=a}lib{\=\i}},
        Pages = {271-314},
        Title = {Maw{\=a}qif Ibn Ru{\v s}d f{\=\i} ma{\v g}{\=a}l{\=a}t al-fikr al-d{\=\i}n{\=\i} wa-l-falsaf{\=\i} wa-l-ʿilm{\=\i} wa-l-s{\=\i}y{\=a}s{\=\i} wa-l-ʾadab{\=\i}},
        Year = 1983}

-- that's what BibDesk makes of it.

Citeline, on the other hand, displays it as

Mawāqif Ibn Ruundefined sd f\i maundefined gālāt al-fikr al-d\in\i wa-l-falsaf\i wa-l-??ilm\i wa-l-s\iyās\i wa-l-??adab\i
R\idah, Muundefined hammad ??Abd al-Hād\i ??Abū (1983).
Mu??tamar Ibn Ruundefined sd, 271-314.

Can you help us?
Many thanks & best,
Florian.
