I use columnset in MKII to typeset Arabic text in a multicolumn layout and the text starts in the left column. Is there a nice way to force the text to start in the right column? Something like \definecolumnset[arabic][n=2,direction=right] doesn't work. (A nasty, ugly hack is fine too ;-) Example: \starttext \definecolumnset[arabic][n=2,direction=right] \startcolumns[arabic] Oeps. In Arabic the 'first' column is on the right: \input knuth \stopcolumns \stoptext Thanks, Jelle ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
