Ali Nastaliq : Redefining Urdu Calligraphy

Ali Nastaliq are revolutionary fonts crafted by Axis SoftMedia Inc., bringing a new era of digital calligraphy to the world of Urdu typography. These fonts blend tradition and technology, providing unmatched versatility for designers and publishers who seek perfection in Nastaliq script.

In 2012, Ali Nastaliq Characters were designed by Arif Anjum, Senior Calligrapher at Axis SoftMedia and a skilled digital artist with over 10 years of experience in Nastaliq and Naskh calligraphy. The OTF programming was done by renowned Nastaliq Expert Syed Manzar Zaidi, ensuring a perfect blend of artistry and technology. These fonts showcase the perfect harmony of tradition and innovation.

Ali Nastaliq: The First Dahelvi Nastaliq Character-Based Font Ali Nastaliq is the first Urdu Dahelvi Nastaliq font that is character-based while offering multiple shapes for each character. Specially designed for digital calligraphy, it empowers designers to push creative boundaries with its unique features:

Multiple Kashish Options: Adjust the elongation of letters (Kasheeda) to create diverse artistic effects.

Nuqta and Aerab Control: Move individual Nuqtas (dots) and Aerabs (diacritical marks) with precision, giving users full control over fine details.

Headline Perfection: Optimized for newspaper headlines, ensuring words fit perfectly without unnecessary height expansion.

Aerab Support: Unlike other Nastaliq fonts, Ali Nastaliq provides full Aerab support, making it ideal for religious, literary, and formal publications.

Key features include:

Seamless Conversion: Instantly switch between character-based Ali Nastaliq with a single click, transforming the shape and appearance of text effortlessly.

A Game-Changer for Designers and Publishers Both fonts work harmoniously, allowing users to blend character-based and ligature-based typography with ease. Professional publishers already rely on Ali Nastaliq for its unmatched elegance and accuracy. While currently exclusive to the Manzar Typesetting Tool, Axis SoftMedia is actively working on expanding compatibility with other popular software like Microsoft Word ©, CorelDRAW ©, and Adobe Photoshop ©.

Why Ali Nastaliq Stands Out:

First of Its Kind: The only Urdu font offering full Aerab support and multiple Kashish options.

Perfect for Headlines: Optimized to maintain balance and proportion in bold newspaper headlines.

Professional’s Choice: Trusted by top publishers for creating refined, visually stunning Nastaliq compositions.

Ali Nastaliq are not just fonts; they are a tribute to the art of Nastaliq calligraphy, refined for the digital age. Experience the beauty and power of Urdu typography like never before.

Available now exclusively with the Manzar Typesetting Tool coming soon to other major design platforms.
