Bustani is the very first OpenType ® font to offer full classical Naskh contextual shaping, while supporting all the many languages that utilize the Arabic writing system without the requirement for auxiliary plugins (an OpenType compliant application is needed). Through the usage of OpenType ® stylistic sets,
Bustani includes intelligence to pick the proper letterforms for faithful interpretation of Naskh calligraphy.
Bustani supports Arabic, Farsi, and Urdu-- in addition to many other languages. While mostly meant for setting literary text, the Bustani typeface can likewise be utilized in a more comprehensive range of tasks that need classic, elegant shapes. "The face shines in environments where the text is offered breathing room," says Giasson. "This consists of poetry, literature and creative publications-- perhaps even including a little bit of style to parking tickets," he quipped.
