Babel-Kazakh – Kazakh language support for pdf/Xe/LuaLaTeX with babel and polyglossia
The package supports Kazakh with Babel under pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX. It was tested with TeX Live 2025. The Kazakh hyphenation support files have been submitted to the maintainers of the hyph-utf8 package.
The package also provides Kazakh language support for Polyglossia under XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
Sample documents demonstrating the use of the package are also included. A BibTeX database is provided to demonstrate compatibility with BibLaTeX.
Kazakh localization for BibLaTeX is still under development and will be completed in a future release
