Learn Urdu Inpage In Urdu With Videos Tutorials
v InPage is a word processor and page layout software for
languages such as Urdu, Persian, Pashto and Arabic under Windows which was
first developed in 1994. It is primarily used for creating pages in the
language of Urdu, using the Nasta`līq (نستعلیق) ('hanging' calligraphic) style of Arabic
script. As a de facto standard Urdu publishing tool, InPage is widely used on
PCs where the user wishes to create their documents in Urdu, using the
authentic style of Nastaliq with a vast ligature library (more than 20,000),
while keeping the display of characters on screen WYSIWYG
(What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get). Overall, this makes the on-screen and printed
results more 'faithful' to hand-written calligraphy than all or most other Urdu
software on the market. This is achieved while keeping the operation easy, akin
to that of earlier versions of Standard English Desktop Publishing packages
such as QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign.
v Before being used within InPage, the Noori style of Nastaliq,
which was first created as a digital typeface (font) in 1981 through the
collaboration of Mirza Ahmad Jamil TI (as calligrapher) and Monotype Imaging
(formerly Monotype Corp.), suffered from two problems in the 1990s: a) its
non-availability on standard platforms such as Windows or Mac, and b) the
non-WYSIWYG nature of text entry, whereby the document had to be created by
commands in Monotype's proprietary page description language.
v In 1994, an Indian software development team - Concept Software
Pvt Ltd,[1] led by Rarendra Singh & Vijay Gupta, with the collaboration of
a UK company called Multilingual Solutions [2] led by Kamran Rouhi, developed
InPage Urdu for Pakistan's newspaper industry, who up until that time had been
using large teams of calligraphers to hand-write last minute corrections to
text created under Monotype's proprietary system. The Noori Nastaliq typeface
was licensed for InPage from Monotype & augmented for use as the main Urdu font
in this software, along with 40 other non-Nastaliq fonts.
v InPage is reported to be in use on millions of PCs in Pakistan
& India (mainly illegal pirated version). It has also been widely marketed
& sold legally in the UK and India since 1994.[citation needed]
v InPage launched its latest Version 3 at ITCN exhibition Asia in
Karachi, Pakistan, held “between” 11–13 August 2008. It is now Unicode based,
supports more Languages, and other Nastaliq fonts with Kasheeda have been added
to it along with compatibility with OpenType Unicode fonts. In addition to
Arabic, Saraiki, Urdu, Persian & Pashto, other languages of the region,
such as Sindhi and Hazaragi can be handled in InPage.
