Abdullahal Mamun
Graphic designer in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Creator of an unnamed softly rounded Bangla font in 2013. He writes: In Bangla, Bidyasagar style font (Sutonny MJ) created by Bijoy is the only Bangla font that is almost perfect. Rest of the fonts has problems such as baseline alignment, x-height alignment, character gap and unfinished characters. If we analyze the logic of Bijoy, we see that other than Bidyasagar (Sutonny MJ), rest of the fonts does not work perfectly with Bijoy. All Bangla fonts are monospace fonts which does not use kerning. Creating kerning feature fonts which will run in Bijoy platform is technically impossible. It is because Bijoy using those Unicode glyphs conflicts with kerning code. With the problem in hand, I have attempted to design and create a finished, perfect curve font with perfect baseline and x-height alignment, which will run smoothly with Bijoy. |
