OK. Note that the two tests need not to be inverted. Since it is just a "missing glyph" problem, we can include them in the chain that ignores missing glyphs errors. > Can you perhaps add > some information on why you these two tests are expected to have > problems with xunicode?

They do not have problems with xunicode, but without. The reason is that the asterisk glyph is not included in the arabic font (Scheherazade), but apparently, xunicode defines an extra asterisk glyph (for a different purpose) that is being used here. Clearly the problem should be fixed somewhere else. A workaround is to redefine the thanks command and to use \ast instead of the plain *: \renewcommand*{\@fnsymbol}[1]{\ensuremath{\ifcase#1\or \ast\or \dagger\or \ddagger\or\mathsection\or \mathparagraph\or \|\or \ast\ast\or \dagger\dagger\or \ddagger\ddagger \else\@ctrerr\fi}} Jürgen > > Scott
