Tiro Gurmukhi specimen from Google Fonts

A thoughtful dual-script serif that brings genuine typographic quality to Gurmukhi and Latin text in a single, unified family.

About

Tiro Gurmukhi was developed to raise the standard of Punjabi text typography, a script that has historically been underserved by high-quality typeface design. Its forms are grounded in traditional Gurmukhi calligraphic conventions while being engineered for reliable performance in digital and print environments. The typeface is well suited to Punjabi-language publishing, cultural institutions, and any project requiring respectful, readable Gurmukhi text.

Classification

Tiro Gurmukhi provides a serif treatment for the Gurmukhi script used to write Punjabi, with stroke contrast and letterform construction that honours the script's calligraphic origins while meeting the demands of contemporary text setting. The Latin complement is designed to match the colour and weight of the Gurmukhi.
