Awad Unicode

Awad Unicode, designed by Syed Manzar Hasan Zaidi, is a modern decorative and bold Urdu font released on October 10, 2017, by Axis Softmedia Pvt. Ltd. Inspired by Naskh script with modern influences, it features wide and symmetrical characters with contrasting thick and thin lines. With 444 characters and 497 glyphs, the font ensures compatibility with Urdu, Arabic, Latin, Persian, and more languages. Its Unicode support spans across various blocks, including Basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Arabic, and more.
The font’s clear and neat outlook ensures high legibility on screens, even at small sizes, making it suitable for shorter texts where its impactful and changing strokes can shine. The thickness of this font is contrasting, denser in the middle, and thin near the edges, creating a visually dynamic appearance. Vertical characters maintain a straight and formal look, with thick, dense strokes in the middle and thin, pointy edges with sharp corners. Spaces between letters are constant, while the letters are wide and relatively plain. Awad Unicode finds applications in branding, logos, headlines, headings, books, newspapers, and formatting documents, where its bold and impactful design can effectively convey the intended message with clarity and style.
