XeLaTeX #4

Closed hoorzad closed 11 years ago

Is it possible that you make a js version of xelatex as well? I work with bidirectional documents that can't be compiled properly with pdftex.

manuels commented 11 years ago

probably. You have to create a tex format file (*.fmt).

for latex I created the format file like this (see pdftex.js repo for pdftex-bin): pdftex-bin -ini -etex latex.tex

hoorzad commented 11 years ago

I'm not TeXpret, but as far as I know XeLaTeX relies on XeTeX typesetting engine which is different from pdftex. I don't understand how it is possible to typeset a bidirectional document with pdftex just by creating a format file.

manuels commented 11 years ago

Oh, ok my fault. then you cannot use pdftex and you must compile the XeTeX compiler using emscripten.
