Author's note

B Nazanin by Borna Rayaneh is a free Arabic text font with the poised, bookish character of traditional Persian typography. Its rounded forms and changing stroke widths give the writing a smooth, settled flow. Its details feel formal rather than ornate.

Publishing is its clearest setting, especially for Persian books, cultural journals, and educational materials. It also suits museum graphics and heritage event programs with a calm, literary voice. Across these uses, flowing joins and measured proportions connect the lettering to sustained reading and print tradition.
