Batool is a modern, wide, and symmetrical Urdu font released on October 10, 2017, designed by Syed Manzar Hasan Zaidi and published by Axis Softmedia Pvt. Ltd. Rooted in the Naskh script with contemporary influences, it embodies a regular and wide style, offering symmetry and clarity. With 444 characters and 497 glyphs, it ensures extensive language compatibility, including Urdu, Arabic, Latin, Persian, and more.
Due to its clear and neat design, this font prioritizes legibility, particularly on screens, even at small sizes. Its thick overall appearance, denser towards curves, and thinner near edges contribute to its impactful and changing strokes. While vertical characters maintain straightness, they are less decorative and more formal, featuring pointy edges and soft corners. The consistent spacing, wide letters, and plain aesthetic enhance readability, making it ideal for longer text blocks. This font finds versatile applications in branding, advertising, books, newspapers, and document formatting, catering to various design needs with its balanced blend of tradition and modernity. Batool delivers a harmonious combination of functionality and visual appeal, whether used for digital interfaces or printed materials, ensuring an engaging reading experience across diverse platforms and contexts.
