For me, this text results in two pages.  The first has arabic 1
centered at the top, and the second has arabic 2 centered at the top,
contrary to what I'd expect.  

I don't know if it matters, but this is how I'm processing it:

# makefile
DOC	 = berend

$(DOC).pdf	 : $(DOC).tex
	texexec --interface=en --pdf $(DOC) < /dev/null
