ae Al Manzomah is a display font influenced by ancient Egyptian structures, showcasing bold triangular shapes reminiscent of pharaohs’ architecture. Its left-leaning slant adds a dynamic feel, while subtle nods to hieroglyphs and Egyptian art enrich its design. Released in October 2017, the font was regenerated by Nadim Shaikli, and it was manufactured by Arabeyes. The unusual appearance of this font, although it reduces its usability, still its technical specifications make it highly adaptable and diverse. It has sharp angles but blunt corners with contrasting thicknesses. Vertical characters are relatively thicker, while the horizontal letters are made of thin lines, adding a visual interest to the text.
Al Manzomah is a versatile typeface boasting 476 characters and 456 glyphs, catering to various languages, including Arabic, Latin, Greek, Urdu, and more. Its solid yet dynamic strokes ensure high screen legibility, even in smaller sizes. While its distinctive appearance, characterized by small triangles, makes it ideal for short texts like posters, brochures, and logos, its applications extend to projects emphasizing traditional Egyptian language and design. With support for multiple Unicode blocks, including Arabic and Latin scripts, this font offers a seamless experience across different platforms and design contexts.
