This is a 100dpi, 24 point (approximately) font that is meant to act as
|
|
an example of what glyphs are needed to minimally support (almost) all
|
|
of the Arabic characters available in Unicode.
|
|
|
|
The encoding of this font is the encoding of Arabic from Unicode 2.0
|
|
with the addition of some contextual forms and some other convenient
|
|
glyphs that do not exist in Unicode. An additional file, "uniarab.txt",
|
|
has been provided to describe the encoding of the extra contextual
|
|
glyphs.
