Non-letter characters in addition to punctuation marks and symbols are:

  • Tatweel (U+0640), used to stretch characters.
  • Zero width non-joiner (U+200C). Usage of the ZWNJ is non-standard but occurs a lot, most of the time this is due to poor conversions from non-Unicode to Unicode mapping in texts.

Converting to Unicode[edit]

  • Kurdî Nûs, a versatile tool for converting to Unicode and Kurdish Latin by pellk Software Development Institute.
  • KurdITGroup's font converter, for converting non-Unicode fonts to Unicode.
Diyarbakir

Beware: Some old converters convert Teh Marbuta (0629) to Heh + ZWNJ (0647 200C) instead of the correct Ae (06D5)!

Most converters don't retain formatting through non-joiners and therefore give a slightly different, albeit more standard, rendering.
