Description: 

Center for Research in Urdu Language Processing (CRULP) at National University
of Computer and Emerging Sciences is pleased to announce updated version of
character based Nafees Web Naskh Open Type Font for writing Urdu in Naskh
script based on Unicode standard. This updated version has complete support of
Aerabs for Urdu and updated glyphs for Latin characters. Guidance and
calligraphy of basic glyphs for the font has been provided by Syed
Jameel-ur-Rehman. He is pupil of Syed Nafees Shah and Hafiz Syed
Anees-ul-Hassan. Nafees Web Naskh OTF contains approximately 330 glyphs,
including 5 ligatures.

We hope that release of these fonts from CRULP will trigger extensive usage of
Urdu over the internet, and electronic communication and publication, and
promote the cause of Urdu computing.
