These logos were drawn in Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format [2] for RAC by Tyler Tidman VA3DGN. Wherever possible, the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format [3] is now being used for all auto-generated bitmaps. The chosen fonts, "DejaVu Sans Bold", "DejaVu Sans", "DejaVu Sans Bold Condensed" and "DejaVu Sans Condensed" [4] are provided gratis under a free license.
French translations were provided by Tyler Tidman VA3DGN and verified by Serge Langois VE2AWR and Claude Lalande VE2LCF. Inspiration for these logos was provided by the old RAC logos donated by James Ewen VE6SRV.
