Follow-up Comment #5, task #8017 (project bibledit):
I will attach the PDF output from my system which uses XeTeX and XeTeX is
driven by the ptx2pdf macro package, the same one used by Paratext.
One thing to note is the verse and chapter numbers in the PDF, they are in
the vernacular form and the encoding was converted while the document was
being typeset, which XeTeX supports.
This is a live project and it is not done yet. There is still more work to be
done with the formating and a few problems to fix. It isn't easy but this
particular language couldn't not be typeset in any other application, at least
not as easily.
