Khatt includes the required Lam-Alif ligatures in addition to all vowel diacritic ligatures. The Mutamathil Taqlidi type style uses one glyph per every basic Arabic Unicode character or letter, as defined by the Unicode Standards, and one additional final form glyph, for each freely-connecting letter in an Arabic text. The script design of this font family follows the Arabetics Mutamathil Taqlidi style and utilizes varying x-heights. Each weight has normal and left-slanted “italic” styles. It comes with five weights, regular, medium, bold, light, and ultra-light. Khatt supports all Arabetic scripts covered by Unicode 6.1, and the latest Arabic Supplement and Extended-A Unicode blocks, including support for Quranic texts. Even though Khatt is a cursive style font it offers clearly distinguished and visually unified letter shapes in every position of a word. The word Khatt is also the word for calligraphy in the Arabic language. Khatt tries to mimic the concept behind the meaning of the Arabic word Khatt: a straight horizontal line.
