Replying to [comment:8 marco]:
> Fedora is already distributing the Kacst fonts. KacstQura is used as
default for both serif and sans-serif. There seem to be no arabic font
configured for monospace.
> If using Kacst works that would make things easier.
Yes, but I would recommend we use the following fonts instead:
Sans-Serif: KacstQurn (I would have preferred KacstOne, but it's not
working)
Serif: KacstBook
Monospace: KacstDigital
Script: KacstQurn
Fantasy: KacstDecorative (preferred) or KacstArt
It is easiest to use about:config to experiment, but to manually edit your
preferences append the following to your ~/.sugar/default/gecko/prefs.js
user_pref("font.name.cursive.ar", "KacstQurn");
user_pref("font.name.fantasy.ar", "KacstDecorative");
user_pref("font.name.monospave.ar", "KacstDigital");
user_pref("font.name.sans-serif.ar", "KacstQurn");
user_pref("font.name.serif.ar", "KacstBook");
Book is really the most beautiful font, I hope it wasn't so hard to read
on a screen. Maybe I should see how it looks on the LCD when I'm in
Cambridge tomorrow.
