From a8f657b83c8402ae67c36080cfcc4a667d60bb24 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roman Priesol Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 20:13:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Document NPS typography (Rawlinson/Frutiger) and editorial style guide MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Noted for completeness in docs/nps-resources.adoc — both proprietary/ licensed fonts, unlike the SIL OFL Noto Sans already vendored, so not adoptable. The editorial style guide is NPS's own writing/terminology conventions, not a design or code resource, included only since it was shared alongside the typography notes. --- docs/nps-resources.adoc | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/nps-resources.adoc b/docs/nps-resources.adoc index 4e7fef0..6c34689 100644 --- a/docs/nps-resources.adoc +++ b/docs/nps-resources.adoc @@ -230,6 +230,30 @@ roads," not OSM's `highway=*` tagging scheme — informative as design reference, not directly portable onto our OSM-derived data without reinterpreting the mapping ourselves. +== Typography & editorial standards + +Part of the NPS graphic identity, alongside Park Tiles — noted for +completeness, but not adoptable and not directly relevant to this app's +own work (a map viewer, not a publisher of NPS-branded content): + +* *Typefaces*: the standards specify two — *NPS Rawlinson* (licensed to + NPS by its creator, Terminal Design) and *Frutiger* (licensed from + Adobe Systems).
