[opensuse-marketing] Templates for Business Cards
Hello Mates, gnokii has given me today in interesting Ideas for our Business Cards. We can see in:https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Business_cards that fedora has an own Program. The Program asks the Variables, and creates an Ready for Printing PDF. The Program gives 2 Options for Order (2 different Pribt Services). We can try to build an package similar to them. Then we must search for available Printservice. In my view Vistaprint (http://www.vistaprint.com) are an good Printservice. Maybe we (Zonker or other) can try to negotiate with the Printservice about an abatement. -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns openSUSE Ambassador (ZoneCoordinator Europe, Middle East and Africa) openSUSE Marketing Team openSUSE Build Service openSUSE Features Screening Team Web: http://saschamanns.gulli.to Project-Blog: http://lizards.opensuse.org/author/saigkill Private-Blog: http://saschasbacktrace.blogspot.com

yeah. It's verey easy to use. She uses the FAS Fedora Account Services and from there comes the personal information on the card. I dont know such services exist for suse. But this way is good. We keep safe all have the same cards, especially fonts maybe wallawalla. Then must this font be installed with an package we can provide this. br gnokii

Couple of things: I had to quickly put together a business card before I attended a conference several months ago. I used Overnightprints.com to design it, even though I am NOT an artist. :-) I had wanted to use our font instead of what I used at Overnight, but the freely-available font currently in design by jimmac still is in development and we can't freely use the Cholla one. (is that right? Cholla?) So we need to get that finished first before we start coming up with a standard business card for everyone to use. This is the template as copied from Overnight. http://www.bryen.com/images/buscard.jpg. I had it printed on high-gloss heavy grade paper with the corners rounded off. It actually came out nicely and if I had wanted to, I could have printed content on the reverse as well. If I remember from VistaPrints years ago, VistaPrints put their logo on the back of every card. I didn't like that. -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member openSUSE-GNOME Team Member GNOME-A11y Team Member www.bryen.com (Personal Blog) www.planet-a11y.net (Feed aggregator of the Accessibility Community) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Is there a template that we can use with OpenOffice. I am only asking because tomorrow I am going to ALE monthly meeting tomorrow, would like to have something that is standard. I can create one, but if there already a template, I like to use that. I don't mind buy ones later, but due to the timing, I want to make sure I have something. -- ---------------------------------------- The trouble with being punctual is that nobody's there to appreciate it. -- Franklin P.

We don't have a template at this time. Also, I'd recommend using Inkscape rather than OO.org to create the template, depending on how you plan to have them printed. If you come up with a template, though, would be happy to have that on the wiki for future users.

Nope a problem. The only I would need to create for OO.org or Inkscape is the the logo that you guys want me to use. I have done in the past a lot of lays out for business card back in Pagemaker. So I don't mind. Also I looked the Fedora one, it nice what catch phrases do you want to use as well. -- ---------------------------------------- The trouble with being punctual is that nobody's there to appreciate it. -- Franklin P.

Dear Chuck,
For now I am using this from the opensuse page for the logo...
I would suggest to take a look at SVN instead, as it contains much more variants: https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse-art/trunk/00assets/logo/ Best Regards Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Hello, why not use gLabels to design the business card? It can use templates and you can use a CSV file to include everybodys data. I know it's a bit outdated in the suse repos but it's the easiest way.

That is a very nice design. I like how sharp and business-like it looks. Can you do several mockups that have various types of information? For example, with mailing address, without phone number, without gpg key, etc.? That way we have a better idea of how things look depending on the Ambassador's choice of information to add to the card.

After much searching, I have not found the source required for the card is as I. I and Luiz Ranghetti look in the version of True Type (.ttf) of Fifth Leg not found. I thought to use the author to see if he releases a version of the true type. Is it? If someone is or has installed it (remember: the type true type), please send me so I can finish this little project :) Those found on the Internet are of type Open Type On Wed, Jun 17, 2009 at 23:12, Raul Libório<rauhmaru@gmail.com> wrote:

Hello, Yeah looking great but there is a little problem. For an template you must begin to write left and make sure there is enough place for long names. About the fonts, I spoke yesterday to jimmac, I had the same problem with fonts. I used wallawalla and there is no "big" defined with this font. Jimmac say to me I should use 5th leg.odf. Now I am using this, but this has no small ;) br gnokii Am Donnerstag, den 18.06.2009, 00:13 -0300 schrieb Raul Libório:

If someone is or has installed it (remember: the type true type), please send me so I can finish this little project :) Those found on the Internet are of type Open Type

I wanted the original font work, but here in my Inkscape do not know why it did not work. But imagine the font original project.
That is a very nice design. I like how sharp and business-like it looks. Can you do several mockups that have various types of information?
For example, with mailing address, without phone number, without gpg key, etc.? That way we have a better idea of how things look depending on the Ambassador's choice of information to add to the card.
Thanks!

Hello,
Yeah looking great but there is a little problem. For an template you must begin to write left and make sure there is enough place for long names.
About the fonts, I spoke yesterday to jimmac, I had the same problem with fonts. I used wallawalla and there is no "big" defined with this font. Jimmac say to me I should use 5th leg.odf. Now I am using this, but this has no small ;)
ooh I forgot can you put your proof to http://en.opensuse.org/Ambassador/Brainstorming There is an section "business cards" maybe there are more ideas an we can make a little challenge ;) br gnokii

Cheers,
Raul, Looking good! But, (and this is only my opinion), I think it looks too busy with the tail behind the Ambassador's name. I wonder how it would look if you moved that tail behind the Geeko logo. Not sure if its legal (need to check), probably wouldn't look good either. But just curious. By the way, have you tried printing this out as actual business card size? I'm curious how it comes out, as its pretty large on my screen, but the address information area is kind of small on this large screen. Would it look even smaller in print? On a separate note: For the reverse side, we already have the same logo on the front. Seems like a waste of potential real estate. I'd like to hear if people think the reverse should have either reference points (links) or cheat sheet or something.

I don't think it's useful to put the 'Geeko-tail' behind the logo, nor would it comply with the trademark guidelines. Instead I would suggest to use, either the logo or the 'Geeko-tail'. (I would prefer the 'tail' as then there is more space for address information).

This includes changes in the Fund requested by Satoru and the name and the Geek left to right, request by S.Kemter. More suggestions?
I am not sure how I feel about reversing the logo on the front side. It looks umm... not sure how best to describe it but out of place somehow. I will just shut up and see what others think of it. New thought (after writing this email), I wonder if we should move the logo and name to BOTH be on the same side? That way there is a little white space that allows Ambassador to jot a quick note to recipient if needed. About the reverse: I like it generally, but suggest some change in wording: www.opensuse.org $lang.opensuse.org (Keep these. Looks great to me) "If you need help, feel free to" change to "Get Connected!" or "Connect with the Community!" Using "Help" sends a message that you *need* help if you want to run openSUSE. Our cards should be more welcoming and inspire confidence to new users.

http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa260/rauhmaru/opensuse/005.png I prefer the geek on the left, as always look first to this side, but ... need more opinions =) On Sat, Jun 20, 2009 at 00:52, Bryen M Yunashko<suserocks@bryen.com> wrote:

Logo really should be on the left side, it is commonly used practic. I think that asking of moving name to the left did not include moving logo to the right, just "move the name as close to the logo at the left as possible" =) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

On a separate note: For the reverse side, we already have the same logo on the front. Seems like a waste of potential real estate. I'd like to hear if people think the reverse should have either reference points (links) or cheat sheet or something.
+1 I think it would be good if there are some informations on the reverse side, for example: http://www.opensuse.org http://$LANG.opensuse.org -- if it exists If you need help, feel free to ... ... subscribe to mailing list by sending an email to - opensuse+subscribe@opensuse.org - opensuse-$LANG+subscribe@opensuse.org -- if it exists ... join the IRC channel on freenode.net - #opensuse - #opensuse-$LANG -- if it exists Best, -- _/_/ Satoru Matsumoto - openSUSE Member - Japan _/_/ _/_/ Marketing/Weekly News/openFATE Screening Team _/_/ _/_/ mail: helios_reds_at_gmx.net / irc: HeliosReds _/_/ _/_/ http://blog.geeko.jp/author/heliosreds _/_/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
Hi all. I personally like the Droid fonts, too, because they are clean and sharp. Maybe not perfect for Headings, but the rest. Best Regards Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

In case it wasn't clear before, Jimmac's 5th Leg implementation is designed to be similar to the Cholla font that openSUSE officially uses on its site. However, Cholla is licensed and can't be used by the open community at large. So, bless him, he came up with 5th Leg. So, unless we are talking about changing the overall font across the board, we should be using/adapting towards 5th Leg. -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member openSUSE-GNOME Team Member GNOME-A11y Team Member www.bryen.com (Personal Blog) www.planet-a11y.net (Feed aggregator of the Accessibility Community) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

I know that 5th Leg is a Cholla replacement. Me was talking about the regular font used on the business cards, not the headings. Best Regards Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
Thanks Jimmac =) I did what I recommended, but not worked. Any suggestions? Do you need something more? Cheers On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 11:51, Jakub Steiner<jimmac@gmail.com> wrote:
Ah, you mean it has no normal weight! It does. You are likely using an old verison of 5th leg. Grab the ones form svn:
https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse-art/trunk/00assets/fonts/FifthLeg....
and for bold: https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse-art/trunk/00assets/fonts/FifthLeg-...
Download them to your ~/.dfonts and do a refresh of your font cache: `fc-cache --force ~/.fonts`
cheers
