They are intended for corporations I guess... I have little say in price
determination.

Not really. That was part of the beauty of Nuun: I was able to do a
dynamic font
implementation for Arabic before Typograph was able to deal with Arabic
character sets
(problem is many glyph to single character mapping ). So I used a simpler
encoding
and designed the font layout myself. I have a version including some
special characters
(a couple of which are not in the Arabic Unicode set that I have invented
to write
Palestinian Arabic as part of an ongoing project of mine I intend to
publish
(hopefully soon after I am done with graduate school).
