Mj Ghalam 2 is a distinctive Urdu script font with a natural, handwritten feel. It is the identical twin font of its counterpart, MjGhalam 2, in appearance with the same overall appeal, just a slight difference. Designed and manufactured by Hamoonsoft, this font is copyrighted by Mj Farsi Fonts ®. Originally released in 2004 and later converted by type designer Mojtaba Kia in 2008, the font features a soft, messy appearance, with each letter maintaining a unique formation. The letters are not aligned on the baseline and often appear slightly above it, enhancing the handwritten appeal. The font has a semi-bold thickness with condensed letters, rounded corners, flowing letterforms, and soft, dull edges. Comprising 291 characters and 220 glyphs, it offers versatility and usability, although it is available only in a single Regular weight, which limits its adaptability for various design needs.
The font’s varying letter thickness and solid yet untidy strokes add a personal touch, making it ideal for projects where a sense of individuality is desired. It is particularly well-suited for applications such as poetry, postcards, book covers, titles, logos, and branding. However, due to its messy and natural appearance, Mj Ghalam 2 has relatively low legibility at smaller sizes, making it better suited for small-text applications. The font is compatible with multiple regional and Latin-based languages, including Urdu, Persian, Arabic, English, and Greek, making it a versatile choice for projects with diverse language requirements. Additionally, MJ Ghalam 2 supports the latest Unicode blocks, such as Basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Spacing Modifier Letters, and Arabic, further enhancing its usability across various platforms.
