<font>Hi,</font><div><font>From what I see, after the new logo has been introduced in 2011, no specific font has beed defined as a </font>standard for OpenStreetMap logo, or at least it is pretty impossible to find in current wiki. On the site the header is spelled with d with <span class="webkit-css-property" title="font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Arial,sans-serif;" style="font-family:Consolas,'Lucida Console',monospace;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">font-family</span><span style="font-family:Consolas,'Lucida Console',monospace;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">: </span><span class="expand-element" style="font-family:Consolas,'Lucida Console',monospace;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"></span><span class="value" style="font-family:Consolas,'Lucida Console',monospace;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">'Helvetica Neue',Arial,sans-serif</span><span style="font-family:Consolas,'Lucida Console',monospace;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">; </span>so Helvetica could be modern standard, if we write it down somewhere.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As for the old logo from the link, it's writeen with a vertically-stretched Verdana (You can check svg source file here: <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Osm_button-path.svg">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Osm_button-path.svg</a>). I've managed to achieve almost same result with bold italic Verdana stretched vertically by 180% as well as with bold italic 180%-stretched Bitstream Vera Sans. I do not like the old logo at all though.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hello list,<div>are there some style/brand guidelines for the creation of OSM materials?</div><div>Particularly I was asked about which font could be used to write OpenStreetMap, and the only text I found was the one in the old banner ( <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Osm_linkage.png" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Osm_linkage.png</a> ) but there isn't no indication of a particular font.</div>
