Expert typesetting in Urdu
Our in-house studio provides a fast, economic service and takes pride in its reputation for precision and accuracy. With our decades of experience in Urdu DTP, we can rework your publication in Urdu, whilst preserving the style and spirit of the original design.
From advising on the language implications of your initial designs through to producing print-ready PDFs, our studio’s expertise ensures your project is in great hands – producing language-appropriate, elegant Urdu layouts.
Urdu typeset correctly
Producing a document in Urdu can present challenges unfamiliar to those more used to European languages. Urdu reads from right to left, so the order of the page elements must reflect this. Layouts can be reversed, but care needs to be taken with pictures that flip badly or contain writing. Our studio work with this reversing of layouts every day, so you can be sure that your document will read correctly to an Urdu speaker.
We typeset Urdu in-house, which means that we can respond quickly to amendments or queries. This also allows us to advise you during your design process of any potential pitfalls in Urdu. In many projects, we can even point out advantages of Urdu reading from right to left. For instance, it is possible to produce a bilingual brochure in English and Urdu with each language having its own correctly positioned front cover, reading into the middle.
We will typeset the main body text of your documents in the Nastaliq style, which is the customary way of writing Urdu. Naskh (the standard Arabic style) is only ever used for headings and display text in Urdu.
Be assured that we have all the required expertise for typesetting Urdu: an in-depth understanding of the Urdu writing system and typographic conventions, and an authoritative knowledge of InDesign, Illustrator, Word, Photoshop, Powerpoint, Acrobat and more.
We are happy to provide samples of our Urdu typesetting on request.
