Al Naqaaa S is a handwritten and condensed Arabic font with filled zero spacing, creating an artistic effect. It was designed by font designer Ghanem and released on April 1, 2019. It offers a unique creative element with filled zero spacing and subtle irregularity, adding a personal touch to your designs. It is not strictly a calligraphic font, yet it follows the rules of Ruqqa scripting language. It features a horizontal emphasis, a compact baseline, and rounded and blunt edges complemented by sharp terminals. This makes it easy to understand on a digital display. With 443 characters and 440 glyphs, this font supports Arabic, Latin, Greek, and Urdu, providing versatility across various linguistic contexts. Despite its irregular stroke and solid thickness, the font maintains consistent thickness throughout, contributing to its balanced appearance.
While it has the feel of handwriting, the letter spacing is equal, enhancing its balanced outlook and ensuring legibility, although it may be lower due to its condensed nature and untidy appearance. Best suited for short texts, Al Naqaaa S is ideal for artistic works such as posters, signs, book covers, and branding, where its informal appearance adds character and flair. Its Unicode blocks cover Basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Spacing Modifier Letters, Greek and Coptic, Arabic, General Punctuation, Currency Symbols, Letterlike Symbols, Mathematical Operators, Arabic Presentation Forms-A, and Arabic Presentation Forms-B, ensuring comprehensive language support and compatibility.
