Author's note

Teer by Amit Kumar is a free directional dingbat font built from stark, solid arrow forms. Its signs use straight shafts and sharply tapered points, giving the symbols the plain authority of wayfinding graphics. The construction is geometric and stripped of decoration.

Navigation and movement are the clearest themes, making the font useful for maps, event signage, transport graphics, and game interfaces. It reads like functional sign language. In an interface or illustrated map, the arrow symbols can become active route markers rather than ordinary lettering.
