BabelBidi – An extension to babel’s bidirectional support
This package extends Babel’s bidirectional support by correcting specific direction-sensitive behaviour and providing interfaces for text direction, layout, language selection, and font configuration, including glyph fallback with LuaTeX.
It also provides directional boxes and direction-aware facilities for footnotes, lists, bibliographies, RTL cases, margin notes, and columns, together with configurable counter separators, Latin-language citations, and language selection for verbatim text. Targeted compatibility patches are supplied for commonly used packages.
It works with Babel under LuaTeX (recommended), XeTeX, and pdfTeX, in documents with either an LTR or RTL main language.
