Hey @hgulino all new mimetypes should use Roboto for the font, re: the discussion in #316. If you would like to help me convert icons that don't use Roboto, I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks!
Looks like some of these using Google Sans as font
I can work on that. Quick question before I get started. The docs want text y-position at 43 to 44px. Are you sure this is the metric I should be using? I'm using Adobe Illustrator to create the mimetypes and have attached a sample of the issue I ran into. The text is totally bleeding over the edge of the icon.
Canvas is 48x48
Font is Roboto @ 6px
Shade part height is 8px
The icon itself is using the "Horizontal rectangle" properties in the docs (Width: 44px Height: 32px)
@hgulino I use Inkscape to make the icons, so the guides are for that. The text position might not be correct in the documentation... I'll review and update it once I finish exams this week.
If you can vertically center the text in the dark bottom "margin" part of the icon, that would probably look best (maybe adjust the baseline of the text if it looks off).
Hello! Love the work you guys have done on this project! I wanted to make some mimetype icons relating to Adobe filetypes, but I noticed that there are still some font inconsistencies.
(I attached a screenshot for comparison. The bottom text is Google's Roboto regular and it doesn't match at all with the mimetype fonts.)
Scrolling through various threads on the repo and didn't find any other reference to fonts being used but Roboto. I was curious if these mimetypes were an exception to the rule or if they needed to be updated to the design standards? I'm still curious to know what font is being used.
