I have tested the font with katoob/gedit, OpenOffice.org and firefox on
Debian. Here are my comments :
* There is not enough line spacing: in katoob/gedit, the tops and
bottoms of most letters overlap. In Fx, only diacritics overlap. In OO.o
however, It's clean. :-)
* The diacritics are not always on the correct letter (this doesn't
happen with Fx)
* Some spacing doesn't seem correct to me, for instance the space after
ra' especially را
the spaces are very small, but I don't think it's a problem
