Towards the revival of traditional Arabic typography through TeX
Résumé
The goal of this new Arabic TeX system is the revival of traditional Naskhi style typography, by keeping the most simple and natural input, and the most of compatibility with TeX macro packages. Arabic typesetting is done in two ways: (a) without pre-processor for non vocalized text; (b) by means of a preprocessor for vocalized text. Both ways can be mixed in the same text. The new font, “Al Amal,” features more than a 1,000 ligatures as well as all special signs and symbols needed for typesetting the Quran.
