Hi Ali, (01)
Thank you. Shall I assume this is your "final" submission? (02)
Personally, I liked your updated font more (I almost commented on it
earlier ... but then, I didn't feel strongly enough, and did not have
a good suggestion to offer either.) (03)
(It's not hampering our progress, but ...) I am having trouble
rendering your svg file (I only seem to get the left half of the
graphics (when I tried to open it with with Mozilla-Firefox or
Corel-PaintShopPro) ... is it possible that your attachment is
corrupted? ... see:

Regards. =ppy
