From a practical point of view, are there any differences in the two following node lists? (I think their meaning is obvious, but note your e-mail client could be reordering the final [14]):
[9][0]<+TRT>برهن <+TLT>rrr 1234<-TLT> برهن<-TRT>[14] [9][0]برهن <+TLT>rrx 1234<-TLT> برهن[14] The first one renders correctly the text, while the second one doesn't. So, I'm wondering if I can write a workaround for this bug based on this idea (ie, wrapping the whole paragraph with explicit node dirs before the fontloader - my first basic tests worked). I was finishing babel 3.16 and I'm preparing a sample Arabic document with tocs, sections, captions, etc., and I'm stuck, which is a pity, because the layout works like a charm. Javier
