Manzor Unicode

Manzor Unicode, crafted by Syed Manzar Hasan Zaidi and published by Axis Softmedia Pvt. Ltd., is a modern, Regular Urdu font designed for readability and clarity. Released on October 7, 2017, it boasts 444 characters and 497 glyphs, ensuring compatibility with Urdu, Arabic, Latin, Persian, and more languages. Inspired by traditional Naskh calligraphy with modern influences, the font features a simple and straightforward design. It eschews decorations in favor of a plain, plain appearance, focusing on legibility and functionality.

Despite being limited to a single font weight (regular), this typeface offers high legibility, even at smaller sizes. Its regular thickness, almost constant throughout the letterforms, contributes to its balanced and harmonious aesthetic. The font’s delicate strokes and slightly thin edges enhance its elegance, making it suitable for longer text blocks such as books, newspapers, and editorials. Vertical characters are straight, with slightly pointy edges and soft corners, lending the font a formal and refined look. Manzor Unicode finds applications in branding, advertising, logos, books, and newspapers, where clarity and readability are of the utmost priority.
