Rooyin
NoonFont · Mohammad Darvishi · 2025
A Persian pixel typeface that brings pixelated aesthetics to Arabic-script text without sacrificing legibility in running copy.
About
Rooyin applies pixel art structure to Persian letterforms, using contextual alternates and a custom variable axis to toggle the pixel 'teeth' between hollow and solid styles, shifting the tone from playful to firm. Eight weights span from Regular to ExtraBlack, with a variable font available in the Pro package, alongside two dot style variants. Language support extends to Arabic, Kurdish, Urdu and a bespoke Latin set, with advanced numeral features including tabular figures, superscript, subscript and Quranic verse markers.
Classification
Rooyin is a pixel-inspired Persian typeface designed to evoke pixel art aesthetics while retaining the structure of contemporary Persian letterforms, placing it firmly in the display category with a geometric pixel subcategory.
