Intended Audience: |

Session Level: |
Beginner, Intermediate |
DecoType and Fontlab are joining forces to produce a tool that enables the
production of Open Type fonts for (extended) Arabic, Hebrew and others in
both the TrueType and PostScript flavours. Therefore, this talk will not be
just theoretical, but also practical: a new, RTL-enabled version of the
FontLab font editor ( www.fontlab.com ) will be shown and discussed against
the background of a general understanding of the structure and aesthetic
qualities of these scripts.
