بهترين فونٹ.

يھ فونٹ كس طرح دستياب هو سكتے هيں اس پر كچھ روشني ڈاليں تو بهتر هوگا.

شكريھ

ماشاء اللہ بہت کی خوبصورت فونٹ ہے۔ کب ریلیز ہو رہا ہے ضرور بتائیں

Dear mzishannasar ,

Actually nice font, but can I suggest you to change the shape of "Dot"/"nogta" as below:

Thanks.

Ali Moshref

Indeed. The dots stand out.
Anyway, I would strongly recommend new design of the numerals. The currently existing stand out (once again) too much - formally, aesthetically and ideologically - from the rest of the project. In short: they don't fit into your Father's calligraphy, they destroy it. Take a look at Renaissance numerals, maybe at Garamond...

Thanks Dear Atif Gulzar! This font is in a development phase till now. And we want to commercialize this font!

Dear Aziz Mustafa. Thanks for appreciation. I will share a pdf sample of my font shortly!

معز بھائی۔۔۔اور تسنیم احمد بھائی
یہ فونٹ ابھی تکمیل کے مراحل میں ہے انشاء اللہ جلد ہی یہ فونٹ ریلیز کے قابل ہو جائے گا۔۔!
آپ کی دعاؤں و نیک تمناؤں کا طلبگار ہوں۔

Dear Ali Moshref!
First of all I am grateful to you liking my work.
As for as the style of dot/Nuqta is concern I think the style shown by you in picture is actually a Shikasta Style not a Nastlique Style.

My father is Internationally award holder calligrapher in Nastalique type of Calligraphy. So, He knows very well that which type of dot is used in Nastalique font.

even then I will discuss this matter with my father...!
Thanks again...!

Your comments and suggessions regarding my work will be welcomed

Overall texture of the font seems pretty good compared to other urdu fonts. How did you handle kernings and collisions between dots and letter shapes?
Good work :)

PS: Your photos are too high in resolution and they run out of the browser window, why don't you upload password protected PDFs so anyone could take a deeper look on your work?

Brother its a wonderful font. Is it out for download yet??
