[Corpora-List] Typing Urdu text in LaTeX

[Paul Johnston]

Try something along the lines of

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{arabtex}
\begin{document}
\begin{RLtext}
\seturdu
abcdefgijklmnop
\end{RLtext}
\end{document}

I don't pretend to speak Urdu but it compiles and looks reasonable.

Paul
