"Share": A corporate font for TYPO3


The special font-family, Share, has been developed to advance the TYPO3 identity
further and to maintain consistency across communication channels.
Having a corporate font means making every print or screen design a completely
recognizable product.

The following will introduce you to the different weights and styles of the
TYPO3 corporate font. Share comes with the Western European code page.

Share is designed by Ralph du Carrois from seite4

One family, different styles

To include most typographical options the font family Share includes diverse styles.
This grid shows how the different styles are classified.

Vertical axis defines the design characteristics of the font.
Horizontal axis defines the stylistic characteristics of the font.

The monospaced font on the upper left is designed for source code paragraphs
only (e.g. for books about TYPO3).
Below is a variation with regular leading (not monospaced) but still a technical looking
font face. This version can be used for headlines or for special, shorter paragraphs.

The text fonts come in two weights: Regular and Bold and each with an italic variant.
The text fonts is the main base for the typographical identity of TYPO3.
The new logotype is designed with Share-Regular in uppercase.

Free Suitcase and Pro Suitcase

To make all this easy for non-graphic designers two different suitcases have been constructed.

The Free Suitcase includes only the basic fonts.

Regular for text paragraphs and the Monospaced for code paragraphs.

The Pro Suitcase includes the complete Share font family.
The Pro Suitcase has Old style Figures for its text fonts and
a so called ExpertSet for all cuts.

The Pro Suitcase is only available for use in official communication by the TYPO3
Association, e.g. by the design team and for presentations, annual reports and such.
