Thuluth ("one-third") is a script variety of Islamic calligraphy, which made its first appearance in the 11th century CE (fourth Hijri). The straight angular forms of Kuficwere replaced in the new script by curved and oblique lines. In Thuluth, one-third of each letter slopes, from which the name (meaning "a third" in Arabic) comes. It is a large and elegant, cursive script, used in medieval times on mosque decorations. Various calligraphic styles evolved from Thuluth through slight changes of form.
So here is my first production,
of course with this sheet you will get the description file (with extension FNT), if you work before with some bitmap font you will know what you have to do with it.
a lot of manual work took me to get these results, and be sure that you will never get an Arabic bitmap font as this one.
NOTE: there will be a lot of other Arabic bitmap fonts with other styles.
