RE: Quran Graphics, Kacst may help you

[moath abdullah <moath2 at yahoo dot com>]

Assalamo Alaykom every body.
I think if you are seeking the quran cover from
Al-Malek Fahd center of printing the Qur'an contact
them through KACST (King Abdulaziz City ..) in Saudi
Arabia. They are supporting Linux very well and I
think they it will be better to take it from them.
Call Dr. AlKanhal he is the responsible for this. I do
not know his name but you will find him on
saudi_linux at yahoogroups dot com (Saudi Linux Users Group)
