Subject: Numerals in mkiv
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 23:08:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <913904C4-2DE1-4E62-810E-76B344E13B93@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi Hans,
It seems that Arabic or Persian numerals (for instance in section
numbers) in mkiv begin at 0, instead of 1… well it is true that in
Mathematics natural integers begin with 0, but not in books in those
languages :-)
Here is a minimal example:
\setupdirections[bidi=global]
\pagedir TRT
\bodydir TRT
\pardir TRT
\textdir TRT
\starttypescript[serif][arabic]
\usetypescript[serif][fallback]
\definefontsynonym [Serif][name:SimpleNaskhi] [features=arabic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [arabic]
\definetypeface [arabic][rm] [serif] [arabic] [default]
\stoptypescript
\usetypescript[arabic]
\setupbodyfont[arabic,12pt]
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% heading numbers:
\setuphead[section][conversion=persiannumerals]
%,numberstyle={arabic}]
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}{%
\section{بخش}\par
آزمایش
}
\stoptext
Pardon me if I have been missing something already explained elsewhere.
Best regards: OK
