File verified 28 Oct 2026: Kufam, TTF format, 2332 glyphs, 428544 bytes, checked from the TTF itself. The download button above serves this verified TTF file.

Variable font note: this is a variable font with a weight (wght 400–900 (default 400)) axis, so one file covers the full weight range. The preview on this page shows the default Regular instance. Older apps that do not support variable fonts may only show that default Regular weight — if you need a heavier weight in such an app, use an app that lets you pick the weight, or export your design from an app that supports variable fonts.

What Is Kufam?

Kufam is a bilingual Arabic/Latin face inspired by 7th-century Kufi inscriptions: its upright, even letterforms carry a carved, inscriptional quality while staying highly readable. Its full Urdu letter coverage was checked from the font file itself before this article was written. It is a TrueType variable font, so it installs like any standard font in apps that support it, with the weight range described in the variable-font note above. The staged file is the upright variable font; the separate italic variable file is not the file served here.

How to Use Kufam on Mobile Apps

Most font users today work on their phones, not on a desktop — so this section matters most. On Android and iPhone you use fonts inside design apps, not by changing the whole phone’s system font.

On Android (PixelLab, Canva and font-installer apps)

Download the TTF file on your phone using the button at the top of this page.
In PixelLab: open a text layer, tap the font option, choose My Fonts, and import the downloaded TTF file.
In Canva: upload the font through the Brand Kit font upload on a plan that supports it, or use the in-app font list — see our Canva Urdu fonts guide for the exact steps.
With a font-installer app: open the TTF in the installer app and follow its prompts to make the font available to supported apps.
Type Urdu with an Urdu keyboard, keep the text direction right-to-left, and check that letters join correctly before exporting.

On iPhone and iPad (via a font installer app)

Download the TTF file on your device using the button at the top of this page.
Open it in a font-installer app and install the font profile when asked.
Pick Kufam inside apps that support custom fonts, such as Canva, and type Urdu with right-to-left direction on.

If the font does not appear after installing, restart the app — and see our Android install guide and common Urdu font problems guide if letters show as boxes.

How to Use Kufam on a Website

Download the TTF file using the button at the top of this page.
Upload it to your website (for example, your theme’s fonts folder).
Add an @font-face rule in your CSS pointing to the file, for example:
@font-face { font-family: 'Kufam'; src: url('fonts/kufam-font-download.ttf') format('truetype'); }
Apply it to Urdu text with font-family: 'Kufam', serif; on your Urdu content, with dir="rtl" and lang="ur" on the Urdu blocks.
Test in Chrome and Firefox — Urdu shaping differs slightly between browsers, so check a real paragraph, not just a heading.

Best Uses for Kufam

Headings and titles — inscriptional Kufi letterforms stand out on posters and banners.

Kufam vs Jameel Noori Nastaleeq

Jameel Noori Nastaleeq is the classic sloping Nastaliq benchmark for traditional Urdu documents. Kufam is upright and inscriptional rather than sloping, so it suits headings and documents where a carved, historic feel matters more than calligraphic flow. Choose Jameel Noori for traditional Nastaliq documents; choose Kufam for Kufi-inspired Urdu headings. For more background on the styles, see our Urdu Nastaliq fonts history.
