--- Comment #14 from Yousuf Philips (jay) <philip...@hotmail.com> ---
So i'll be tackling the issue of what we should bundle in this comment.
Windows and Mac both provide a calligraphy-styled Naskh font (Arabic
Typesetting, DecoType Naskh), a Kufi font (Andalus, KufiStandard GK), a variety
of regular Naskh fonts, including a default arabic fallback font (Simplified
Arabic/Times New Roman, Geeza Pro). Windows also includes monospace fonts
(Courier New, Simplified Arabic Fixed) and sans fonts (Tahoma, Segoe UI).
So in order to help Windows and Mac users to use open source arabic fonts, as
well as ensure interoperability of documents created on linux with the
available open source arabic fonts, we should bundle
* calligraphy-styled Naskh - Amiri
* traditional-styled Naskh - KACSTOffice, KACSTBook, Scheherazade
* Kufi-style - Reem Kufi
* mono-space fonts - Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed, Thabit
* sans font - Noto Sans Arabic
I've left out fonts from the Arabeyes collection and XB Niloofar based on
Khaled's recommendation of their legal status. I also didnt include Noto/Droid
Kufi and Noto/Droid Naskh in the list as we are already shipping them (bug
103080).
