For the next print it should be written on them in a small font
in a dark corner.
I printed the posters for a French conference, the JDLLs, a few years ago. IIRC, they were pretty expensive to do a small run (it was a French equivalent to Kinkos) - a cheaper solution would be nice.
The sources for the smaller ones (blue sky, water drop on leaf) are here: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/teams/art.gnome.org/backgrounds/GNOME-BlueSky_1600x1200.jpg http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/teams/art.gnome.org/backgrounds/GNOME-DropsIII_1600x1200.jpgThey needed to be cropped after printing, which was a shame. But 1600x1200 gave a nice finish, I think.
For Andreas's posters (Happy People, On Time, Every Language) the SVGs are in the wiki. They used to be linked from here: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeMarketing/MarketingMaterial but they seem harder to find now. Did someone "reorganise" the wiki page and remove links to previous stuff again? I know that the pages tend to clutter over time, but I'd really like to be able to find the high quality stuff people have dome for us when I need them.
On digging: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeMarketing/MarketingMaterial/Resources - under "Older posters" (note: the blue sky & drops posters which are listed there are available in 1600x1200, and print fine on A2).
And finally, the other poster I did (as I mentioned to some of you) in about 1 hour, based on the first page of Máirín's excellent branding guidelines.
There are also the business card template she did a while ago (which also seems to have dropped off the resources page): http://mihmo.livejournal.com/32626.html
Oh - and in writing this email, I see that the "business card" link in "MarketingMaterial" is a dead link. I'll comment it out of the wiki page.
I've attached the SVG for the poster, I think it is just the cover of the branding guidelines slightly reorganised for the right paper size. It's not the same as the PDF which finally printed for the poster, I had to hack around a bit with it to get rid of some gradient effects that weren't working in Adobe Acrobat with the printer, IIRC.
Hope this helps! Dave. -- Dave Neary GNOME Foundation member dneary gnome org Jabber: nearyd gmail com
