It appears you can upload supposedly non-supported files, so here's that document.
If you don't have a font that supports many Unicode characters, la'e la'e zoi gy. http://www.linuxlibertine.org/index.php?id=91&L=1 gy. is a good one.

Yet another script (lukys)

lukys — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 07:04:02 +0000

This one was crafted with the notion of simplicity at mind. The letters are designed so that they are one stroke each. I have made an .odt file with some Unicode approximations I have found. They are overall pretty close to what I had in mind.
The vowels are a bit unique. They are made by drawing the lines adjacent or tangent (depending on whether it's on a corner or not) to the specific vowel on the IPA vowels chart and circling the vowel.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPA_vowels_chart_with_audio).
Please let me know what you think.

Here is the .odt file, and I will produce a .doc file on request:

.y'y. is used to make different "shapes" of vowels, separating "oi" and "o'i". It never occurs outside of two vowels and only serves that one purpose, so it should not be considered a lerfu. Even when counting lerfu to determine whether something is a gismu or not. I think. I can't remember who told me that.

These symbols are usually only used in Taiwan. The people in Mainland China who use Mandarin use the Latin alphabet. Also, the fact that there is not a standardized bunch of shapes to represent letters in Lojban mean there's going to be a lot of different set of letters to be learned Lojban actually ever comes into place worldwide.

The Lojban alphabet has exactly 25 letters, and the D'ni script is based on a base-5 numerology. It might be nice to try to only use the 25 "core" letters, though I'm not sure if there's a sensible mapping to make that work.

Agree.
Although not necessarily arabic, latin characters are not good.
Script is better in terms of flow and readability.
