> I have at home a whole book devoted to Arabic typography and font design which illustrates how one font can provide Arabic and Latin in which both scripts share most visual features and blend together in harmony. This may be a legitimate endeavour in the context of advertisement or corporate visual identity, but for other purposes this objective is quite ill-founded.

>From a just curious person without any knowledge regarding Arabic typography: why do you (or the specialists) think it's ill-founded?
