PakType Naqsh

PakType Naqsh is a distinctive font designed primarily for Urdu and Arabic script. It exhibits a calligraphic aesthetic, which is typical of traditional Arabic script. However, unlike other Naskh fonts offering a smooth and curved appearance this one offers a bit sharper outlook. It has pointy corners, wide spacing between letters, and a relatively smaller and condensed structure. Therefore, it is not preferred to be used for calligraphy artworks.  Moreover, it includes a wide range of glyphs, about 1850, accommodating the complexities of Urdu and Arabic writing systems, which often require unique representations for different letter combinations. Also, it has an extensive charset of 1755, which contains letters, punctuations and special signs from different languages.

PakType Naqsh is a versatile typeface created by Umar Rashid and Lateef Sagar Shaikh, and it is available for free distribution under GPL. The font has a normal weight, offering a balanced appearance for various text styles. The thickness of the letterforms is consistent, resembling the steady flow of a qalam (ink pen), ensuring clear and uniform strokes. The letters are well-spaced with moderate gaps, making the text easy to read and visually pleasing. The strokes are clean and precise, with smooth curves that give the font a neat and structured look. PakType Naqsh supports a wide range of languages, including Arabic, Latin, Bengali, and Thai, making it ideal for multilingual projects. Due to its structured and clear design, the font is highly legible and suitable for both short and long text blocks, including books, articles, and official documents. The font supports numerous Unicode blocks, offering extensive versatility for various design needs.
