Al Gemah Yaqwt2 is a calligraphic Arabic font with long, tightly spaced letterforms with vertical emphasis. It is based on Naskh calligraphy, which is evident in its strong baseline and slanted sharp edges like those made with calligraphic pens. However, its symmetrically spaced and long letters also suggest the influence of the Kufic scripting language. Developed by Maleksoft Developer Co., this font offers 460 characters and 458 glyphs, offering versatility for various design projects. Released in 2020, it supports Arabic, Latin, Greek, Persian, and Urdu languages, ideal for projects with multilingual demands. Moreover, with its support for the latest Unicode blocks covering a wide range of characters and symbols, the font becomes more accessible.
With a medium weight and width, Al Gemah Yaqwt2 offers a balanced appearance suitable for various applications. However, its embellished letterforms may affect legibility, making it more suitable for short texts than extensive passages. Its even and monospaced letter spacing ensures a cohesive look in various design contexts. The font features consistent thickness with thick, wide, and sharp ends, accompanied by solid and impactful strokes. Despite its limitations in practicality due to having only one weight, it finds its role in decorative applications such as posters, flyers, headings, book covers, branding, and logos.
