966+ For bidirectional documents, native pandoc `span`s and `div`s
967+ with the `dir` attribute (value `rtl` or `ltr`) can be used to
968+ override the base direction in some output formats.
969+ This may not always be necessary if the final renderer
970+ (e.g. the browser, when generating HTML) supports the
971+ [Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm][uba-basics].
972+
973+ When using LaTeX for bidi documents, only the XeLaTeX engine
974+ is fully supported (see `--latex-engine`).
975+ Setting the `dir` variable enables bidirectional text
976+ handling in LaTeX and ConTeXt, thus even if the base direction
977+ is the default left-to-right, you should set `dir: ltr` for
978+ documents that also contain some right-to-left script.
