Nassim Arabic
Nassim is a contemporary typeface for multilingual text-setting. With its lively texture and balanced rhythm, Nassim is a proven workhorse for a vast array of applications, from literature to the sciences, scholarly publications to contemporary news. Nassim has always been ahead of the curve, bridging the distinct typographic traditions of Arabic and Latin without forcing the typographer into compromise. Now, Nassim Arabic Pro pushes the limits of digital Arabic typesetting even further, incorporating extensive combinations of ligatures and smart contextual alternates that enhance legibility while maintaining the exceptional rendering that readers have come to expect. The Normal edition covers the editorial fundamentals, while the Pro edition extends them with an intricate suite of new typographic tools. A comprehensive palette of swash variants give the typesetter refined control over justification that is authentic to Arabic, while ranging numerals and fractions enhance the representation of numerical data. Carefully engineered OpenType features like tooth-height alternation ensure that structurally similar letters are more readily distinguishable for an ideal reading experience. Both editions of Nassim Arabic support more than 35 languages using the Arabic script, harmonizing with a well-balanced Latin, across five weights.
