https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60685 Nemo federicol...@tiscali.it changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |DUPLICATE --- Comment #8 from Nemo federicol...@tiscali.it --- This discussion has been going on for a while, but nothing can be done unless the interested users find a font with an open source/free software license as we did in bug 46693. This AlQalam Taj Nastaleeq Open Font License is very long and doesn't allow derivatives to use any other license. It's not compatible with the Open Font License (OFL) and I doubt article 3.1.1 is compatible even with GPLv3 article 6, I mean the part which begins «The following must be also Redistributed together with the Derived Program, or be made available online or by means of mailing mechanisms in exchange for a cost which does not exceed the total costs of postage, storage medium and handling fees [...]». I see the authors reserved the right to update the license. Please write them and ask to adopt the OFL http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?item_id=OFL_web_sc=1 or to get approval of their license with this process: http://opensource.org/approval Alternatively, test the Hussaini Nastaleeq font and let us know if its quality is good enough for you: http://openfontlibrary.org/en/font/hussaini-nastaleeq When you're done with the above please post the results on bug 56939. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 56939 *** -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Noori Nastaleeq is own by Concept Software Private Limited, India and they have never authorized used of their ligatures in any other fonts. Hence, Jameel Noori Nastaleeq and Alvi Nastaleeq both are not suitable for use. In my opinion, we can use Taj Nastaleeq, developed by Mr. Shakir ul Qadree, and Nafees Nastaleeq, developed by CRULP (www.cle.org.pk). Both fonts are free and open source. I can personally invite Mr. Shaqir ul Qadree here to elaborate license terms of his font 'Taj Nastaleeq'.
