Equationeditor Numbers in persian language

Hi, Is there anyone help me that how to show equationeditor numbers in Persian numbers Unicode format?

What is a persian number. Is there a web page somewhere with some examples?

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:Persian_numbers

If you click on each symbol under "0", "0 cont" and "1" you'll get the Persian numbers from 0 to 10.

Hello, I need the latex renderer to render for example at the same but show the digits 2 and 3 in Persian or Arabic style same as the above resource.

Thanks.

Does anyone know if LaTeX can do this at all.

I assume it can, but we must have to include an additional character set. I'll look around.

cyberical, I think I've found a solution to your problem. Here is the solution in LaTeX format, for the moment:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{arabtex}
 
\begin{document}
 
\setfarsi
 
\[
\mbox{<2>} + \mbox{<3>} + \sin(\mbox{<10>} \pi)
\]
 
\end{document}

So, assuming you can write numbers like 1436 in Persian by progressively translating 1, 4, 3 and 6, then you just need to use the "arabtex" package as above, then enable the Persian script using "setfarsi" and write your number as <1436>.

Notice that will not be written using the Persian script. This only works when in text mode, that's why I've used the "mbox" command in my example.

The next thing to do is to incorporate this option within the equation editor, which I assume should be rather straightforward to do. Also this may be a good opportunity to provide support for various other Arabic scripts, as well as other scripts.

Adding in the other document classes isn't a problem so long as this doesn't impact on speed. That my only concern with leaping in to support other languages.

If I can recognize use of Persion or Arabic within the LaTeX code, then I can turn on/off the additional packages as need be.
