Maged LT

Maged LT is a versatile Arabic font with a wide letterform characterized by symmetrical edges, blunt corners, and a soft nature. Released by Heidelberger Druckmaschinen and Linotype in 1987. It draws inspiration from the Naskh script with modern design elements. With 619 characters and 587 glyphs, it offers extensive language support for Arabic, Latin, Greek, and more, making it suitable for various typographic needs. This traditional-style Arabic text face was originally a dry-transfer typeface before being licensed to Linotype-Hell for font production. Redrawn by Adrian Williams in consultation with the Linotype Design Studio (U.K.), this unique font represents a trend-setting modern Naskh design while retaining the fluidity of Naskh calligraphy. The font is available in two weights, offering adaptability for different design requirements. These weights may include:

• Maged LT Regular
• Maged LT Bold

Maged LT Regular and Bold are well-suited for both long and short text applications, with high legibility ensured by its constant thickness and strong, impactful strokes. The font’s soft and blunt corners give it a modern and welcoming feel, making it ideal for headings, book covers, branding and logos, t-shirt designs, and more. With OpenType format and support for Latin and Arabic character sets, the font enables seamless integration into designs requiring text in both Western European and Arabic languages.
