ISSUES WITH ARABIC FONT - 1 LETTER

Closed this issue · 5 comments

hello,

the arabic letter K needs to be adjusted to follow the same curve as L in red.

otherwise it looks like its a broken letter or the end of it is cut

Kaf

can you please fix this?

I'm not able to replicate this.

Can you post the Arabic text as selectable text?
That way it will be easy to copy and paste.

ل ك

can you let me know if this works?

Yes, I can see it now.

However, I the same difference can be observed in multiple other commercially available typefaces:

Therefore I conclude that this has been a deliberate stylistic choice by the designers of Plex Sans Arabic.

would you be able to recommend other fonts that dont have this stylistic choice?

That is beyond my expertise I’m afraid.
