About
Vazirmatn is a Persian/Arabic font project that started in 2015 under the name Vazir with the idea of a new simple and legible typeface suitable for web pages and applications. Thanks to DejaVu Sans font (v2.35) published in public domain there was a free software base to start the Vazir project. Although Vazir was a completely different typeface, still the original software was common. For the Latin glyphset, Vazirmatn is combined with Roboto.
The last release in June 2022, fixes some bugs, improves the design, and offers a more expanded glyphset.
