I played yesterday with Arabic documents and with the default settings I get with pdflatex, and XeTeX the number at the right side. Only if one uses leqno as document class option I get it in the left side. Could you please send me your Arabic testfile to check? > To this end, ams* packages support the reqno option.

But this requires the amsmath package to be loaded while leqno is available for all document classes. So this needs some more investigation. I cannot find Hatim's physics book that he recently published. I want to see how the numbering is in his book because is a native speaker and teacher so I assume he will use the default numbering. thanks and regards Uwe
