“[…] originally developed for use in dry-transfer format [in 1976], and […] first produced as a digital font by Linotype-Hell Ltd. in the early 1980s. Initially a simplified face, with its inherent limited range of letterforms, Mofid Mahdi was enhanced during the late 1980s by the introduction of medial letterforms to improve character spacing and balance. The […] OpenType font includes Latin glyphs from Memphis Extra Bold.” [Linotype/MyFonts]
