This seems to be a bug of lyx: if the document is Hebrew the context of \section{} and similar macros should be RTL. If you have an English title it should explicitly have \L{} wrapping it. Workaround: start that paragraph with a "note" character (insert->note) and make that note's direction RTL. Maybe you'll also need to add such a RTL note in the end. Such notes are generally very useful in lyx: they play a somewhat similar role to RLM and LRM. > Same for index entries This is a bug of heblatex, actually I never got it to work properly. > and if I recall correctly also for bibliography > items.

Re: Mixed hebrew english table of contents and index in latex
This sounds suspiciously like a bug I found lately in LyX and emailed to Dekel Tsur IIRC. He will be working on it, but was a bit busy lately, so it could take a few weeks. I would email him your file, so that he can see another example of the problem. Mine was with Hebrew quotes. You could switch back to an older version of LyX (1.2.x), but then you'll have to comile from sources. Otherwise, there is a workaround that I can't quite remember.

Mixed hebrew english table of contents and index in latex
When I try to get the table of contents in latex and there are both english and hebrew headers I get the english headers as hebrew letters instead of english. Same for index entries and if I recall correctly also for bibliography items. Is it possible to fix this? I am currently using lyx for latex but I can enter the code manually if there is a way to bypass this. In addition to the above, When I try to get an english table of contents in a hebrew document I just get errors. I am using the debian unstable ivritex package, in case I should switch. = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
