ICF catalog logo cut out #51

Closed mslw closed 2 months ago

The page (viewbox) size of assets/fzj_icf_logo.svg SVG file (used to display the logo on top of a generated catalog) seems to be too small to fit the text. This is what it looks like in Inkscape for me:

And this is also what it looks like in the generated catalog for me (cut off at ICF Study Ca).

Note that this can also be caused by the font - it is set to Apple Symbols, which I do not have (and it is unlikely to be available by default on non-apple OSs), so what is shown is the closest replacement chosen by the system. Looking at the SVG XML, I see that the text element specifies Nanum Pen, but the tspan element specifies Apple Symbols. Nanum Pen at a given size fits into the page.

In any case, given that the catalog page is meant to be viewed on user computers, I would convert the text to paths, or even convert the logo to png. A suitable font could be Weissenhof Grotesk (Jülich’s corporate font, according to our Corporate Design Handbook), but it is proprietary. I would go for something more neutral then Naunum Pen (maybe even Liberation Sans or Free Sans).

I think it is a good idea to convert them to paths. How about the Google-font Hanken Grotesk, IIANM it is free. The lower case "y" is different and the capital "C" is not as slim as in "Weissenhof Grotesk" though.
