Thanks for looking into this. It seems that LaTeX with 8-bit TeX fonts is possible but tricky. * You need to set all non-Arab text parts to a different language (English, say). * You need to define alternatives for hyperref (e.g. with textorpdfstring) for correct handling of hyperref. >From a practical point, I propose to * Keep the existing Arab documentation with use-non-TeX-fonts and default output to XeTeX. * invert the _texF and pdf2 tests for the existing Arab documentation. * Add a simple example showing that Arab with pdflatex is supported by LyX. Thanks, Günter
