About Ruwudu

SIL International's Ruwudu is a serif typeface designed for the Fulfulde language as written in the Hausa Arabic (Ajami) script tradition, providing four weights and careful adherence to the typographic conventions of Arabic-script West African literacy materials. The design serves communities in the Sahel and West Africa where modified Arabic script is used to write Fulfulde, making it a culturally specific and linguistically important resource. SIL's expertise in minority-language typography is evident in the careful balance of traditional script forms with modern printing conventions.
