Urdu Fonts and Keyboard Layout in Default Ubuntu

[Noumaan Yaqoob]

Hello,

Currently Ubuntu comes with no font for Urdu Language. I would like to 
request the developers to please consider adding Nafees Web Naskh font 
in the default Ubuntu Installation. Nafees Web Naskh is the most 
popular, widely used Urdu font on web pages, software and office 
applications. It is developed by Crulp and is available under this 
license terms:

http://www.crulp.org/nafeesWebNaskh.html

What I have gathered from this license is that we can redistribute the 
license by changing its name to something using neither Nafees nor 
Crulp. So I suggest adding it as "Ubuntu Urdu Naskh" (Naskh means Font 
in Urdu).

Secondly I would like to request that the default Ubuntu installation 
comes with a keyboard lay out for Urdu to choose from various layouts. I 
don't know how it came here but this Urdu Keyboard layout "PAK" is not 
standard and user friendly keyboard layout. Most commonly used Urdu 
Keyboard Layout is also distributed by Crulp available from their 
website. We can install it manually but it would be great to see it 
replace the PAK keyboard layout.
