ArabTeX, a macro package for use with TeX, the powerful typesetting
system designed by D. E. Knuth, and LaTeX, its extension by L.
Lamport to handle structured documents, was initially designed to
support Arabic quotations inside scholarly texts written in some
Western language. A prototype was released in the fall of 1991, and
since then there have been two major revisions, extending the
capabilities of the system far beyond the original goals.
The current version supports several different languages all using
the Arabic script, and also a variety of different input notations.
In this paper we discuss some of the problems which must be resolved
in a multi-lingual system, and we present some local solutions as
implemented inside ArabTeX.
