This section exists to organize digital typographies used by the
|

|
9c6e0d |
CentOS project.

@subsection Usage
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
The CentOS corporate identity is attached to @samp{DejaVu LGC}
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
font-family. Whatever artwork you design for CentOS project, that
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
requires typography usage, must be done using @samp{DejaVu LGC}
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
font-family.

@item Recommendation-1:
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
For screen desings (e.g., anything that final destination will never
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
be printed on paper or any medium outside computer screens) use
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
@samp{DejaVu LGC Sans} font-family.
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
@item Recommendation-2:
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
For non-screen designs (e.g., anything that final desition will be
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
printed on paper or any other medium outside computer screens) use
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
@samp{DejaVu LGC Serif} font-family. As convenction files described in
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
this rule are stored under @samp{Stationery} directories.

9c6e0d |
The only execption for the two recommendations above is the typography
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
used inside CentOS logo. The CentOS logo is the main visual
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
representation of the CentOS project so the typography used in it must
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
be the same always, no matter where it be shown. It also has to be
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
clear enough to dismiss any confussion between similar typefaces
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
(e.g., the number one (1) sometimes is confuesed with the letter
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
@samp{el} (l) or letter @samp{ai} (i)).
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
As CentOS logo typography convenction, the word @samp{CentOS} uses
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
@samp{Denmark} typography as base, both for the word @samp{CentOS} and
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
the phrase @samp{Community Enterprise Operating System}. The phrase
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
size of CentOS logo is half the size in poits the word @samp{CentOS}
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
has and it below @samp{CentOS} word and aligned with it on the left.
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
The distance between @samp{CentOS} word and phrase @samp{Community
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
Enterprise Operating System} have the size in points the phrase has.
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
When the CentOS release brand is built, use @samp{Denmark} typography
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
for the release number. The release number size is two times larger
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
(in height) than default @samp{CentOS} word. The separation between
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
release number and @samp{CentOS} word is twice the size in points of
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
separation between @samp{CentOS} word and phrase @samp{Community
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
Enterprise Operating System}.
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
Another component inside CentOS logo is the trademark symbol (TM).
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
This symbol specifies that the CentOS logo must be consider a product
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
brand, even it is not a registered one. The trademark symbol uses
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
DejaVu LGC Sans Regular typography. The trademark symbol is aligned
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
right-top on the outter side of @samp{CentOS} word. The trademark
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
symbol must not exceed haf the distance, in points, between
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
@samp{CentOS} word and the release number on its right.
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
It would be very convenient for the CentOS Project and its community
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
to to make a registered trademark (®) of CentOS logo. To make a
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
register trademark of CentOS Logo prevents legal complications in the
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
market place of brands. It grants the consistency, through time, of
|
|
|
9c6e0d |
CentOS project corporate visual identity.
