Hi, just uploaded a patch that should allow to typeset also vertically in PDF, and it also moves positioning code away from luatex.web into file pdf/pdfpage.c file. Please give it a try, and report what is broken. Regards, Hartmut

I did a quick test using latex and beamer package, and found that luatex appends some random strings to end of lines, things like "gg...rg..." or "ggggg" etc. I'm not sure if this is related to positioning changes, but in TRT mode those strings overlap on the mirrored line and don't get mirrored them selves. This issue is in PDF mode only. See the attached samples. Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer

thanks for reporting this bug, yes it's connected to the positioning. What you see are color commands like "r0.2 0.2 0.7 rg 0.2 0.2 0.7 RG", so some \pdfliteral command stays in the text of the []TJ array, will check... Regards, Hartmut

attached is a patch that should fix it. Currently i can't get access to `scm.foundry.supelec.fr': Host not found. Regards, Hartmut
