Hallock was designed by Saad Abulhab and published by Arabetics.
Hallock contains 2 styles and family package options.
A text typeface design with completely isolated letters and extra emphasis on vertical feel and visual connectivity to aid easy reading. The
Hallock font family is named after Homan
Hallock, a New York based American type designer and typographer who created the first documented unified and isolated Arabic font design in July 1864. The
Hallock font family has two styles, regular and left-slanted italic styles. This font family design follows the guidelines of Mutamathil Taqlidi type style with one glyph for every basic Arabic Unicode character or letter, as defined in the latest Unicode Standards, and one additional final form glyph, for the freely-connecting letters in traditional Arabic cursive text.
Hallock employs variable x-height values. It includes only the Lam-Alif ligatures. Soft-vowel diacritic marks, harakat, are selectively positioned. Most of them appear by default on the same level, following a letter, to ensure that they would not interfere visually with letters. Tatweel is a zero-width glyph. Keying the tatweel key before Alif-Lam-Lam-Ha will display the Allah ligature.
Hallock includes both Arabic and Arabic-Indic numerals, in addition to standard punctuations.
