Hello everyone,

I am looking for well designed fonts to write in arab. Of course there is Geeza in the system… But I am looking more for a sans serif arabic font :)

Don’t forget the great Arabic fonts in the Linotype Library.

pfiou ! that is what I call fast :) Thanks for the infos !
But I am more in the spirit of the linotype fonts…
this one is closed of one I am looking http://www.linotype.com/111022/ahmedregular-font.html

I forget to tell you that this font is made to be view (and read) on and off tv screen (must be very readable with open eyes) and will certainly be the arabic typography companion of a font like FF Strada or ITC Tabula…

FYI, Dubai TV has a good screen Arabic.
Dunno what it is though.
