Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

Everything seems to work fine with bidirectionality, but some characters
disappear.

Here is a sample were Hebrew is almost not printed:

    \usemodule[simplefonts]
    \setupdirections[bidi=on]
    \definefontfeature[hebrew][default][lang=heb,script=hebr]
    \setmainfontfallback[LinuxLibertineO]
      [range=hebrew,force=yes,features=hebrew]
    \setmainfont[TeX Gyre Pagella]
    \starttext
    This Hebrew letter isn’t printed: אָֽ.
    \stoptext

I don’t know what is wrong here. The font seems to have defined the
glyph (I‘ve checked it with fontforge).

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo
