The is an Arabic headline typeface designed by Ali Almasri and published through the Abjad Type Foundry . It is heavily inspired by the hand-written Naskh newspaper headlines popular during the 1960s and 1970s across the Arab world. The word "Manchette" itself translates to "headline" or "masthead" in Arabic media jargon. The font family features sharp geometric cuts, high contrast, and deep typographic variations that balance structural modernism with classical Arabic calligraphy roots.
