Description

Site link : http://ks.wikipedia.org

The current font for Kashmiri language does not render all characters properly. The appearance of some characters is not well defined. We came across a new font which can help to solve this problem. It renders all characters properly and in cursive format. The apperance of this font is similar to the font used in books and handwritten forms.

@Nikerabbit Thanks for the update, but the AwamiNastaliq is breaking in chrome browser which makes it unable to use. The NotoNastaliqUrdu font seems to overcome this issue and is rendering words correctly. This is the reason we are requesting for NotoNastaliqUrdu.
