As the internal data structures built by TeX-{-}XeT differ from those built by \TeX, the typesetting of a document by TeX-{-}XeT may therefore differ from that performed by \TeX. So you may notice that some packages behave differently when TeX-{-}XeT feature is on and you may want to turn the feature off for a part of the text so that you get the default behaviour of original \TeX. Two commands are provided for this purpose: +\begin{BDef} +\Lcs{TeXXeTOn}\quad\Lcs{TeXXeTOff} +\end{BDef} +\begin{itemize} +\item \Lcs{TeXXeTOn} turns TeX-{-}XeT feature on, which is active by default when \textsf{bidi} package is loaded. +\item \Lcs{TeXXeTOff} turns TeX-{-}XeT feature off. +\end{itemize} +\subsection{Options of The Package\label{options}} +There are three options, namely \texttt{RTLdocument} and \texttt{rldocument}, which are essentialy equivalent. If you pass any of these options to the package, you will be typesetting a document containing mainly RTL texts with some LTR texts. These options activate \Lcs{setRTL} (explained in \autoref{PSC}), \Lcs{RTLdblcol} (explained in \autoref{twocolumn}) and \Lcs{autofootnoterule} (explained in \autoref{footnoterule}). + +It is clear that if you do not pass any of these options to the package, you will be typesetting a document containing mainly LTR texts with some RTL texts. + +There is also \texttt{extrafootnotefeatures} option that allows footnotes to be typeset in different formats: +\begin{BDef} +\Lcs{normalfootnotes}\\ +\Lcs{twocolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{threecolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{fourcolumnfootnotes}\\ +\Lcs{fivecolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{sixcolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{sevencolumnfootnotes}\\ +\Lcs{eightcolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{ninecolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{tencolumnfootnotes}\\ +\Lcs{RTLcolumnfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{LTRcolumnfootnotes}\\ +\Lcs{paragraphfootnotes}\\ +\Lcs{setLTRparagraphfootnotes}\quad\Lcs{setRTLparagraphfootnotes} +\end{BDef} +\begin{itemize} +\item \Lcs{normalfootnotes} typesets footnotes in Standard \LaTeX{} format. +\item \Lcs{twocolumnfootnotes} to \Lcs{tencolumnfootnotes}, typeset footnotes in two-columns to ten-columns, respectively. +\item \Lcs{RTLcolumnfootnotes} typesets footnotes columns RTL (first column on the RHS and each next column to the left of the previous column) and \Lcs{LTRcolumnfootnotes} typesets footnotes columns LTR (first column on the LHS and each next column to the right of the previous column). \Lcs{LTRcolumnfootnotes} is active by default. +\item \Lcs{paragraphfootnotes} typesets footnotes in paragraph format. +\item \Lcs{setLTRparagraphfootnotes} makes footnotes run from left to right. This comand is active by default. +\item \Lcs{setRTLparagraphfootnotes} makes footnotes run from right to left. +\end{itemize} + Please note that when using \texttt{extrafootnotefeatures} option, the footnote rule will be as wide as the text width and \Lcs{autofootnoterule}, \Lcs{rightfootnoterule}, \Lcs{leftfootnoterule}, and \Lcs{textwidthfootnoterule} commands have no effects. + + + + Please also note that if you redefine \Lcs{baselinestretch} command or change the value of \Lcs{baselineskip} primitive before \Lcs{paragraphfootnotes} command, then you may get Arithmetic Overflow error.
