Rawasi Display Typeface specimen from Iwan Type

A six-weight Arabic display typeface in the Naskh tradition, combining sharp edges and high stroke contrast with an extensive OpenType feature set including ligatures and swash alternates.

About

Rawasi pairs traditional Naskh letterform construction with a contemporary high-contrast treatment, making it suited to luxury branding, editorial headlines and packaging. Six weights from Light to Black are available in Arabic-only or Arabic-and-Latin editions. OpenType features include composite glyphs, swash characters activated via a dedicated trigger sequence, and automatic substitution for Saudi and Omani rial currency symbols.

Classification

A high-contrast Arabic display typeface in the Naskh tradition with sharp edges and strong stroke contrast, designed explicitly for headline use. Its sharp terminals and ligature-rich OpenType feature set place it firmly in the display category rather than text.
