Hi Idriss, As Mohammad Hossein pointed out, adding a setups solves both problems you mentioned (font declaration and bidi in footnotes): %%%%% begin test-bidi-footnote.tex \setupdirections[bidi=global] \startsetups[bidi:footnotes] \setupdirections[bidi=on] \definedfont[file:almfixed.otf*arabic at 14pt] \stopsetups \setupnotes[footnote][setups=bidi:footnotes] \starttext \definedfont[file:almfixed.otf*arabic at 14pt] Test امتحان test \startfootnote Test امتحان test \stopfootnote{} \stoptext %%%%% end test-bidi-footnote.tex Best regards: OK

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?]
