I am using glossaries with makeidx in a Farsi document with xepersian. Currently it sorts the output using Arabic alphabet order and places words starting with گ, چ, پ and ژ at the end of list. How can I force Farsi alphabet order?

  • Could you, please, post MWE of your glossary? I'm trying to typeset a glossary sorted using Arabic alphabet but it fails till now. You can see my question here: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/86181/a-tool-for-creating-a-dictionary-with-right-to-left-script. Thanks – maria Dec 09 '12 at 14:45

For indexing non-European languages you need to use xindy, not makeidx. There is xindy support for Persian available on CTAN: xindy-persian.
