Question

PTC font -

Calling Dan! "DAN!"

I am wondering if PTC is willing to provide the PTC fonts for Creo users so we can make accurate logo's for projects.

If not the font, maybe a series of approved sketches that can be used for extrudes or offsets.

Most companies would love you to use official logo art rather than trying to create a sketch outlining a small jpeg.

Can you enquire about this for us?

And in this same vane... TM vs R... I've seen "Creo" both registered and trademarked. Can someone in the public relations office clarify appropriate use?

Thanks

I found out a few things.

  1. We can not provide you with the font because it is licensed
  2. If you're a Partner of Reseller, you do have access to logotypes, collateral, guidelines and images via the Partner Portal. You can request access to the Partner Portal.
  3. I could provide the images to the main product family logotypes here on PTC Community. Let me know if there is interest.

I probably have to settle for 3. If you could please attach a high rez PTC and Creo logo of the stylized font, that would be great.

Why not trace them in Illustrator or Inkscape?

Hi There,

I am new around here.

I am trying to cut a logo into a model; i.e. if I followed the conversation correctly. Can you point to a procedure or method I can use? I am stuck on how to get a profile on a sketch that I can extrude. Can I import something while in sketch?

Sorry for the hijack.

Chris

Hello Chris and welcome to the forum.

There are two ways to "engrave" or "emboss" text and logos onto a surface.

Flat surfaces obviously benefit from simple extrusions, but curved faces can be done with Project.

You can open pre-defined sketches which are fully parametric but sometimes it is easier to have a curve feature such as an imported DXF/DWG file where you simply project the curves into a sketch. The imported file serves as a non-parametric master and the sketch simply copies the geometry.

If you can open the attached files in this discussion, feel free to review and ask questions regarding Projected extrusions:
