ABOUT

Digital Khatt [Amine Anane]

Amine Anane obtained his PhD in 2012 from the University of Montreal. In 2017, he developed a Metafont / Metapost font with variable widths for the justification of Arabic texts, and in particular the Quran. He started the Digital Khatt project amd wrote: DigitalKhatt is an advanced Arabic typesetter based on a Metafont-designed parametric font that can generate a glyph with a given width during layout and justification while respecting the curvilinear nature of Arabic letters. The typesetter extends the OpenType layout engine to support the varying width and shape of the glyphs.
