About Noto Naskh Arabic Font

Noto Naskh Arabic is a cornerstone of Google's ambitious Noto font project, which aims to support all the world's languages with a harmonious, high-quality typeface family. The name "Noto" stands for "No Tofu" — referring to the elimination of those empty rectangular boxes (tofu) that appear when a font doesn't support a particular character.

Developed by Monotype (commissioned by Google) with contributions from typography experts worldwide, Noto Naskh Arabic combines traditional Naskh calligraphic principles with modern digital optimization. The result is a font that displays beautifully on all screen sizes while maintaining the elegance of classical Arabic script.

As the default Arabic font on Android and many Linux distributions, Noto Naskh Arabic has proven its reliability for millions of users worldwide. Its multiple weights (Regular, Medium, SemiBold, Bold) and specialized UI variant make it incredibly versatile for both content and interface design.
