Re: [XeTeX] Problem using bidi with hyperref and amsart
Thank you so much for the fix. MiKTeX does not have it yet but I copied the
file changes from your source on dante and it works fine.
I'm sorry if my choice of words was inappropriate. I very much appreciate
all the work you've put into developing, maintaining, and updating this
package.

version 1.1.3 of bidi is now on dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/...
It fixes this bug and should be in the next TeXLive update.

Hello,
I've been using LaTeX to typeset math for years, but just recently I decided
to upgrade to XeLaTeX in order to include Hebrew. I've come across the
following problem. Chapter 2 of the bidi package document (version 1.3.0,
page 15) claims that the bidi package supports the hyperref package as well
as the amsart class. However, when I use all three together --- amsart,
hyperref, bidi --- the XeTeX engine goes into an infinite loop at the
\makefile command, and exceeds the input stack size capacity. Here is a
small example:

There is no problem with german, but e.g. the babel-ldf for russian contains font encoding changes absolutly unsuitable for xelatex. The main feature of polyglossia is that is adapts/adds more or less xetex-sensible commands to switch fonts when switching to another language which uses another script. -- Ulrike Fischer -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

You will have to track down the fontconfig configuration files. As windows doesn't have a system wide fontconfig, TeXlive must (like miktex) bring a fontconfig with it along with configuration files. Miktex uses fonts.conf, localfonts.conf and localfonts2.conf - the last can be used for user additions. Perhaps the documentation for unix can help you to find out how to configure fontconfig for texlive on windows: http://www.tug.org/texlive/doc/texlive-en/texlive-en.html#x1-350003.4.4 > This problem does not arise with LuaLatex Luatex (luaotfload) use another method to find fonts. -- Ulrike Fischer -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

Re: [XeTeX] Strange behaviour xelatex/fontspec/Windows
Thanks for repying me.
Yes I would prefer not to install GFS Didot in the font
directory of Windows and thus not to use the font service
for this font.
The reason behind that is that I want to build a portable
distribution to be runnable from an USB key.
This key should be usable on a machine where the user
has not the possibility to modify the system (disk C on Windows).
Specifying the font path to load the font is not very convenient,
since the path will change (at least the letter associated with
the USB key can be different on each machine). I don't know
how to specify relative paths on a portable way?
It seems that the "fontconfig" package is running on Windows.
I have seen that the binaries (fc-list, fc-cache etc)
of fontconfig package are present.
One solution would be perhaps to modify the configuration
of "fontconfig" to use the fonts located in the texlive
directory (like I have done for the Unix system).
Is this solution possible under Windows ? How to implement it ?
best regards,
Alain

I could perhaps do a part of the work since I will have a certain amount of time until the end of year. As far as I know, GIT is not very different from CVS/Subversion (the joke about Git is that it is the answer to the question:"who is the boss ?"). Where the CVS/Subversion repository should be located ? For me, the choice of a source control system is not a big problem: I can work with all the three. I think effectively, that an option to the package could be a nice solution, since it is possible that other differences occur. For instance the wording could be sometimes different from the french spoken in France (like the difference between American an British english). What does imply to add an option "romand" (the french speaking part of of Switzerland is often called "Romandie") to polyglossia. Should I clone the Git repository, do the modifications and hope they will be integrated in the main stream ? best regards, Alain -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

With XeTeX you certainly don't need this block.
I could get your result only then when I remove GFS Didot from the font
service, so I presume that you did not configure your font services to provide
this font family.
XeTeX can load a font directly from the disk when you also describe the path to
the font file. Otherwise it uses a font service. If some MS Windows (office)
programme can use GFS Didot, then it's likely that it's in the font service and
can be accessed by XeTeX and xdvipdfmx.
