I came across this news item today:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/01/25/arabic_programming_language/
It seems on-topic because of one specific characteristic of the language mentioned in the article:
By varying the lengths of the lines that connect the Arabic letters that make up the language's commands, Nasser can reshape the appearance of his code without altering its function, producing programs that are both practical and artistic.
The means by which that feature is implemented using ordinary Arabic typefaces, though, may clash with the use of more authentic Naksh typefaces which already have kashida.
Generating an Arabic font is really complicated process, i was thinking is it possible - or legal - to make it easier using Adobe Arabic font and its sample VOLT code??
* I mean changing all the glyph shapes in Fontlap.
* generating a .ttf file.
* opening it withe VOLT and import sample VOLT code provided by Thomas Phinney. then just making edits to it.
It's sound simple, but i don't know if this -so easy- method is bug-free or even legal!? what do guys think?

Hello. I'm trying to source the font with which these logos were created.
If these don't exist, anything modern Arabic/Persian.
Could somebody also explain the difference between Persian and Arabic?
Thanks in advance.

im trying to add Contextual Alternate feature to an Arabic font on Microsoft VOLT.
The font is shipping without any errors. However, the shipped font applies the marks differently then what i defined. plus the characters shift position either upwards or downwards, each set of glyphs behave differently.
N.B: everything seems perfect when i use the proofing tool to check if what ive done is right on VOLT
What is the problem? and how can i fix it?
Dears Typophilers,
I'm new in the typography design.
I did an arabic font with Fontographer 5 but I didn't finish because I need some help.
I need to know how I can create Open type standard ligatures feature with Fontographer 5, font lab or Volt.
or I need to know how I can create ligatures feature.. when I type some letters together the glyph replaces.. for example AL-JALALAH WORD (ALLAH), in some fonts if you type LAM LAM HAA it will have specific shape.
any tutorials, lessons or hints will be very helpful.
Regards,
Mohammed
