Dear gang,

In the attached/following example, bidi is not applied in the footnote:

\setupdirections[bidi=global]

\starttext
\definedfont[file:almfixed.otf*arabic at 14pt]
Test امتحان test
\startfootnote
\definedfont[file:almfixed.otf*arabic at 14pt]
Test امتحان test
\stopfootnote{}
\stoptext

Is there something else that I need to do? Thanks in advance!

[Also: Is there a way to not have to declare \definedfont twice?]

Best wishes
Idris
