Since UbuntuTitle typeface seems to be lgpl/cc, soon will be available different weights of this typeface, following a bit the Adrian Frutiger's norm used on Univers typeface - from skinny to extra-bold, in formats used on Fontforge, Inkscape, and generated as .otf and .ttf - suggestions on where this typeface must be hosted is welcome! :-) - compressed and extended versions will come later, if needed.

Ubuntu-Title

Download the font: attachment:ubuntu-title.otf or and follow the FontInstallHowto.

Andy Fitzsimon of the ArtTeam has created the official Ubuntu Title Typeface.

Ubuntu-Title is licensed under LGPL.

It is packaged and available in universe since Hoary in the ttf-ubuntu-title package.

You can also [http://brisgeek.com/fonts/ubuntu-title.otf download the font] directly from the designer's website.

Where it should be used

with a derived logo such as edubuntu or kubuntu it is recommended that this font be used. Changes to kerning are permitted however kerning reductions are advised against.

Printed Documents

This is a title font and therefore not to be used in body text. Use it for topic headings in ubuntu-related printed documents or in digital documents where fonts can be embedded or subset such as PDFs.

Extending This Font

Ubuntu-Title was made using [http://www.inkscape.org Inkscape] and [http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/ FontForge].

Since UbuntuTitle typeface seems to be lgpl/cc, soon will be available different weights of this typeface, following a bit the Adrian Frutiger's norm used on Univers typeface - from skinny to extra-bold, in formats used on Fontforge, Inkscape, and generated as .otf and .ttf - suggestions on where this typeface must be hosted is welcome! Smile :-) - compressed and extended versions will come later, if needed.

more to be added soon
