Hi All
I am working on Persian Fonts project which is partially funded by TUG
(International TeX Users Group). The aims of the project are:

1) Creating a font Similar to Lotus

2) Creating a Nastaligh font

3) Completing the Persian Modern Fonts (http://ctan.org/pkg/persian-
modern).

If time/energy permits, I would like to work on maximum of another 3
fonts (there were a lot of interest in Farvardin Fonts of TeX-e-
Parsi).

If you think that you can help in any aspect of the project, then
please send me an email.

Also, it would be wonderful if we could make Google fund the project
too.

Google could help but they may change the project names to just
"Fonts" instead of "Persian Fonts" ;)

Hey Vafa,

I'm so interested in designing a font and I already know a lot about designing Gylphs and their kerning and hinting information.

but as you probably know, creating a new typeface requires loads of time and energy! can you gather some fund for it?
