Thank you very, I regret it is not freeer.


What do you mean by free? See this page: http://scripts.sil.org/ArabicFonts.
At the top of the page there is a note about Scheherazade license
change for 1.001 release:

Updated 2007-06-22
ScheherazadeRegOT font is now available under the SIL Open Font License.

See OFL-FAQ.txt for more info about the license in the zip file:
http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/render_download.php?site_id=nrsi&format=file&media_id=scheherazade_OT_1_001&filename=ScheherazadeRegOT_1.001.zip%3Cbr+%2F%3E

OFL is even more free/libre than GPL, because it's not viral :).

Best,
Mohsen.
