Paste it as a text and change the font? Just a wild guess.

The Little Trick I know about it.. might helps you.

1. open your arabic writting software before Corel draw - which loads all the arabic fonts.

2. then open corel draw .. and it will load those fonts into its fonts list...

I have done the same with my Local Language (urdu ) software called ( inpage ) and it works perfectly..

tell me if it works

I speak a bit of Arabic, paste the bitmap text I can rewrite it for you if there's not much, since Ic an't type in Arabic.
Otherwise, you can just paste a bitmap image, and add Arabic symbols... look at this as pictures.
If there's much text then try setting the Arabic font first.
