I don't write Urdu much these days but I can read it.
Cool

Right, Noto Naskh Arabic could also be an option perhaps.
I looked through the Urdu bits using
https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Naskh+Arabic and things
generally look okay. All the letters used in Urdu (~40, which is more
than ~30 used in Arabic) seem to be present. The text is legible and
readable. I tried a few punctuation marks and they are getting rendered
in a way I can read it.
Good to know, thanks
What would be really helpful is to know how it compares with other Naskh fonts
like Paktype (current default) and Nafees, and even Noto Nastaliq Urdu
(they are all in Fedora 38).
Thanks, Jens
