Dear Vafa,
Another question: you mention above that "bidi redefines all footnote
internals". When I load Bidi v1.0.3 with the memoir class, it changes the line
spacing in the footnotes as well. It adds some irregular vertical space
between the lines and the result doesn't look very nice. Is there a way around
this?
Many thanks and best wishes,
Arash
