For the curious, in Paul’s vision of his mother, what’s written on her face is the Litany Against Fear in the Fremen language (see image). You can see the translation here:

I had a whole critique of the font in a real world context, because it bugs my inner font pedant. But I deleted it, because it’s a fictional art and one’s interpretation of it can differ, I shouldn’t judge it in terms of real world fonts and communications symbols.

Thank you! This is amazing! I downloaded a copy of the pdf AND annotated it with the URL so that credit goes where credit it due when I share it further. A humble suggestion that you should add a proper copyright to the original pdf? Artists deserve proper recognition.

I take it Chakobsa is the name of the Fremen language in the film adaptation? Because what I'm looking up says the Fremen tongue descended from Chakobsa and Arabic.
