Hi Burak,

Thank you for testing that font. As a matter of fact I am not  
especially attracted to that font, but for some reason, unknwon to me,  
it is the only one (in Arabic at least…) that LuaTeX can typeset  
without complaining about "metric not found" and such.

Indeed… it so simple! But how should one let LuaTeX know about those  
fonts?

Best regards: OK
