Right to Left (RL) problem with headers

Post by samerafach »

Hello guys,

I'm using LyX to write an arabic document (right to left). I have a problem that all chapters and sections names are appearing on page headers from left to right and that's messed up. I want (with a latex command) to force all chapter names and section names to be taken as right to left.

Right now I'm using the following tedious solution, that at each section name I write

Code: Select all

\textRL{المشاكل التي لا تنتهي}
I'm looking for something elegant to do this automatically for me.

Thanks for any efforts.

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
