Hello everyone! The design team at Canonical have been working on a new Arabic font and we were hoping to get some feedback. I am contacting you because you were identified as someone who speaks Arabic or a related language that shares the Arabic Alphabet. If you are interested in helping out and testing this font, we would appreciate your help. I've placed the links below to the font, as well as an example rendition. http://people.canonical.com/~nskaggs/fonts/Ubuntu-R_w85_h85_2.ttf http://people.canonical.com/~nskaggs/fonts/Ubuntu_Arabic.pdf If you would install the font, and utilize it while using your system that would be wonderful. If not, simply disregard this mail :-) While testing, look for any weird rendering issues or incompatibilities with applications you might be using. If you are curious about how to install and change fonts in ubuntu, I would refer you to this AskUbuntu question, http://askubuntu.com/questions/19770/how-do-i-change-fonts-and-adjust-their-size . After installing and using the font for a few days, please email back and let us know your feedback and any issues you may have found while using the font. Thanks in advance for your help! Either way, we appreciate all you do for ubuntu. Nicholas
