About

IBM Plex Sans Arabic brings the visual logic of the Plex family into Arabic, offering a consistent typographic system for bilingual and multilingual interfaces. Its seven weights from Thin to Bold provide genuine flexibility for both display and text use in Arabic-language projects. The careful calibration between Arabic, Latin, and Cyrillic makes it an invaluable tool for global product design.

Classification
