I agree that there must be some decent fonts available in Ubuntu out of
the box but I dont think that ttf-pakType are any decent fonts to view
Urdu webpages. They are not fully compatible with standards and doesn't
contain several characters for Urdu. Instead, I would strongly recommend
Nafees Web Naskh.

http://www.crulp.org/nafeesWebNaskh.html

According to license stated there, we are free to redistribute, modify
and commercially use this font. Still,  I think that Crulp's license is
not compatible with Ubuntu philosophy which is no problem at all since
the license allow us to modify and rename the file to distribute it with
some other name not containing words Nafees or Crulp. We can call it
Ubuntu-Urdu-Naskh.
