can someone send me a sample file to type farsi?
Hi Ilda,
Here is a sample file for writing Faarsi with XeConTeXt (that is XeTeX +
ConTeXt).
In principle one can also use ConTeXt-mkiv, that is ConTeXt with the
LuaTeX engine, but at this point I have not been able to solve some
problems with the Persian fonts available.
i can look into it if i have samples + fonts + expected output
a few remakrs concerning your test doc:
\everypar={\setbox0=\lastbox \beginR \box0 }
^^ this is dangerous, either do this locally or use
\EveryPar{...}
otherwise you loose quite some functionality
\font\title="X Kerman:script=arab" at 28pt
\font\heading="X Kerman:script=arab" at 18pt
\font\body="X Kerman:script=arab" at 10pt \body
^^^ don't use names for fonts that can conflict with existing macros ...
\titlefont, \TitleFont etc are better choices
\def\Hemi#1{%
\start
\beginR
#1 \par
\endR
\stop}
^^ here you use a % to avoid a space
\Hemi{
ای دل زجان گذر کن، تا جان جان ببینی
}
^^ but here you introduce one (potentially, depends on the state tex's in)
\stopnarrower
\stoptext
\endinput
^^ no endinput needed, since \stoptext ends the job already
