Dear Mohammad, The text seems to be correct, only the footnotes on some pages are not separated from the main text correctly. I do not know how you defined the footnotes, by manyfoot? Probably it helps if you run the file on TeX Live which may include a more recent version of bidi, or such a version can be updated? Unfortunately, I am not aquaint with Mik Tex.
