Comment 2 for bug 1153549

Hi, These days I'm researching different fonts and keyboard layouts and
talking to URDU experts,

The current defacto standard considered is "InPage"
http://www.inpage.com/Download.html. They make their own versions of fonts,
like the version of nastaleeq that InPage makes is called "Noori Nastaleeq".

The best of all public implementations so far i found is Nafees Nastaleeq I
mentioned in my above reply. it has an issue in that the text clarity in
different font sizes is not same(distorted text like if you type something
in large size on a low resolution display), in few sizes the text displays
is not that best clear "like it does if you copy from Inpage" to an image
format and view them in a browser.

the best till i found is Nafees Nastaleeq, which is at least supported.
there are many other versions of Nastaleeq available but not well supported.

the other good fonts available are Nafees Web etc.

Thanks,
