fonts/sil-fonts/lateef 4.400 OpenBSD

Lateef is named after Shah Abdul Lateef Bhitai, the famous Sindhi mystic and poet. Lateef provides a "simplified" rendering of Arabic script, using basic connecting glyphs but not including a wide variety of additional ligatures or contextual alternates (only the required lam-alef ligatures). This simplified style is often preferred for clarity, especially in non-Arabic languages.

This font supports the style of lam-alef ligature which is often used by Sindhi and other languages of southern Asia. Additionally, diacritics on isolate and final forms of characters are left offset to the nukat.

Seven weights for this typeface family are included.
