Omar Naskh specimen from Omar Type Foundry

A seven-weight calligraphic Naskh family designed to cover all Arabic-script languages, with seven levels of true calligraphic tatweels and extensive OpenType features.

About

Built to replicate the authentic hand of traditional Naskh penmanship, the family spans seven weights from Extralight to Heavy, making it suitable for a wide range of typographic applications. Its seven levels of calligraphic elongation (tatweel) are a technically demanding feature rarely achieved on digital platforms. Broad language coverage across Arabic-script languages distinguishes it from more narrowly focused Arabic typefaces.

Classification

A calligraphic Naskh typeface in the Arabic script tradition, featuring true calligraphic elongations (tatweels) characteristic of classical Naskh penmanship. Categorised as script due to its faithful reproduction of hand-lettered Naskh calligraphy.
