So, I cannot get any further here ...
I have stripped this down to this:
dblatex generates the tex file from a docbook source file, it uses xetex
backend for that.
The command used:
dblatex --backend=xetex --texstyle=refcard.sty --xsl-user=dblatex.xsl entries-he.dbk
Based on this example
https://www.guyrutenberg.com/2015/03/20/hebrew-with-xetex-example/
I have generated a dblatex.xsl file, to the best of my knowledge.
(The notation in our dblatex.xsl file is somewhat different compared with
the example from above, so I couldn't copy-paste it directly.)
I have attached:
- the docbook source file ("entries-he.dbk"),
- the style file ("refcard.sty")
- the dblatex.xsl file
- and the resulting tex file.
Many thanks
Holger
