  3. Dear Sir,
    I’m Olivier, from the blog UnofficialRotring and I think you can help me. Rotring has produced 5 stencils / templates specially designed for Arabic characters (they also did some for Russian characters). They are really beautiful and I’d love to have them. As you can imagine they are totally impossible to find in Europe and I’m searching for them for years. May be you’ve heard about this template and can help me find them. I can send you a picture of the Rotring catalog which feature the template, but I cannot send an image in the wordpress comments (I need an e-mail address). So please tell me if you can be of any help, and of course, I’m not forgetting to say that Alazaat views is a very very good blog and quite refreshing from a European graphic designer like me… So much beautiful and amazing calligraphy works !! Keep up the good job. Best regards. Olivier

  4. Hi Olivier, I remember seeing them in Damascus 10 years ago, I’m not sure if I could find them here in Amman.. but I’ll look for them again for sure.. Please send whatever pictures you have to my email: me@alazaat.com and many thanks for being interested in my blog 🙂
