Hi

Just wondering what the current support for Arabic is. Does anyone know? My document works fine for Hebrew and I've just added a new fontfallbac: \definefallbackfamily[mainface][rm][Scheherazade] [range=arabic, force=yes, features=arabic]

Bidi is activated with \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=unicode]

Is that enough for Arabic? Or are there other things I need to take care of?

E.g. searching in the mailing-list archive I found this message: https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg78573.html

> \startsetups[note:footnote]
> \setupdirections[bidi=global]
> \stopsetups
>
> \setupnote[footnote][setups=note:footnote] % align=righttoleft

Is that still true? Anything else I need to be aware of?

Best,
Denis
