Re: [xep-support] Arabic-Indic numbers in lists

Hi,

in the FO file, the generated number is Western digit one in the list, but the strange thing is that in the same FO file the generated number is the Arabic digit number for the page numbering.
note that I wrote both numbers in the XSL as the Unicode representation of Arabic digit one &#x661;.
so most probably the problem is not in XEP.

Hi,

The numbers in your fo:list-item-labels are generated by the stylesheet and XSLT processor.  Take a peek inside your FO file and see if the number inside the fo:list-item-label is a Unicode character for the Arabic-Indic number.  If it is, then the problem is with XEP.  If it an Arabic number, then the problem is with your stylesheet or the XSLT processor you are using.

Subject: [xep-support] Arabic-Indic numbers in lists

Hello,

I am trying to generate Arabic PDF  file.
I am using XEP 4.7

I sucseeded to generate the page numbers in Arabic-Indic  numbering using the following line
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="Bookchapter" initial-page-number="1" format="&#x661;">
The problem is that I am not able to generate numbered list with Arabic-Indic numbers. I am using the line <xsl:number format="&#x661;." lang="ar"/> in the fo:list-item-label element. but the numbered list numbers always generates in western.

Can you please help me to correct this, and generate the Arabic-Indic numbers in the lists?
