[Lingtyp] Should we include original scripts for examples in typological publications?

[Christian Lehmann]

Lehmann's website on Morphological glossing deals with this topic:

https://www.christianlehmann.eu/ling/ling_meth/ling_description/representations/gloss/index.php?open=l1_representation

A problem arises with the matching of an orthographic representation 
running from right to left, say, a Hebrew or Arabic one, with a 
transcription and morphological gloss  in a language - typically, 
English - that uses a left-to-right script. Lehmann only mentions the 
use of number superscripts as a prop, but otherwise does not mention 
this particular problem, probably because he had no handy solution to 
offer. Ideas welcome.
