Haroof-e-tahajji charts for a child learning to read Urdu, for a home wall or a primary classroom. One shows the full alphabet in Nastaliq with a small picture for each letter. One shows the letters Urdu adds to Arabic. One shows the aspirated letters made with do-chashmi he, with their sounds in Latin letters. You can also type a twist, such as pastel colours, and the charts are drawn to that request.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
