Bundled fonts

SwiftFloris ships a small set of script-specific fonts so the IME renders correctly for languages whose system fallback font isn't optimised for input-method rendering. All bundled fonts are open-licensed (OFL-1.1 or equivalent) and attributed below.

Current bundle

Font Path License Used for
Noto Nastaliq Urdu Regular app/src/main/assets/fonts/NotoNastaliqUrdu-Regular.ttf OFL-1.1 Urdu Nastaliq positional shaping (ROADMAP §7 L4.2)

Source and routing

The Noto Nastaliq Urdu binary is committed to the repository as an APK asset. It was sourced from the official Noto Nastaliq hinted TTF build:

NastaliqFontProvider.bundledTypeface loads the asset lazily with Typeface.createFromAsset; if a custom build removes the binary, it falls back to Typeface.DEFAULT so the IME still renders. The keyboard renderer only applies the Compose FontFamily override when the active subtype language is Urdu (ur) and the key label/hint contains Arabic-script code points. Latin labels and non-Urdu Arabic/Persian subtypes continue to use the active Snygg theme font.

Adding a new bundled font

  1. Confirm the font is OFL-1.1 / Apache-2.0 / CC0 (anything copyleft on the font itself disqualifies).
  2. Add the file path + license to the table above.
  3. Provide a *FontProvider Kotlin singleton in the same style as NastaliqFontProvider.
  4. Wire it into the renderer or Snygg stylesheet selectors that need it.
  5. Add an asset-presence/license test.
