Good morning. I have just pushed a series of commits that (hopefully) show the rationale behind :tag, which I have renamed to :script, in order to avoid confusion. Unfortunately, the information in org-latex-language-alist doesn't seem appropriate to cover all cases auto-magically:
All languages using Latin script can't use :script, specifically if you want to use different fonts for different languages. In this case you can to revert to :polyglossia. I have opted for :polyglossia and introduced the :script tag in org-latex-polyglossia-font-config to cater for specificalities (see org-manual.org for a longer explanation with external references). Let me repeat that this process doesn't necessarily need to be repeated for each and every document you have. In my experience, it is similar to what happens when LaTeX defines a document or beamer template. If you need (and are allowed to deviate from the template's font specifications), you will end up with a set of fonts that cover your needs in most cases and that you put in your ~/Documents folder as a .dir-locals.el and then you are done with font configuration. /PA On Sun, 23 Nov 2025 at 12:10, Ihor Radchenko <[email protected]> wrote: > Pedro Andres Aranda Gutierrez <[email protected]> writes: > > > I have just pushed a modified version of the docstring. > > Use: read through > > > https://www.overleaf.com/latex/examples/how-to-write-multilingual-text-with-different-scripts-in-latex/wfdxqhcyyjxz > > I am still confused.
