Awami Nastaliq and LibreOffice for Pakistan

2017-07-21 Thread Martin Hosken
Dear All,

I realise this is a bit of a sales pitch, but it's a mutual benefit pitch.

SIL's Awami Nastaliq font has just been released 
http://software.sil.org/awami/release-1-000. This is a nastaliq Arabic font 
that, in combination with LibreOffice (since it's Graphite only) makes 
LibreOffice the most powerful accessible word processing system for not just 
Urdu but all the languages of Pakistan that use nastaliq.

So if you are of know of users in that region, please let them know that they 
now have the capability to produce nice looking text for free!

BTW the font also works in FireFox. So you can put up webpages with it too.

Yours,
Martin
