Thanks for the example, I think I got your point. From my understanding, I think text and paragraph direction should be only controlled by \textdir and \pardir respectively, whatever \pagedir or \bodydir are. Indeed, I don't see why \bodydir would influence the text direction inside boxes. Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer
