Member red… Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 This topic was imported from the Typophile platform Hello All, I'm working on a logo and for the digital 'sketch' I used Futura Extra Bold Oblique. Cliënt wants to keep that but I'm uncertain about the traps when using the logo larger. Should I manually alter it so there are no traps or should I leave it as is. Thanks. Link to comment
Member Nic… Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I would remove them. The face was originally designed for metal, and the ink traps were only on the small sizes. Link to comment
Member hra… Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Yes, do remove the perception of them. In heavier fonts however you still some modulation, so be careful not to be too geometric. Traps aren't just for ink! :-) hhp Link to comment
Member red… Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Thanks guys! Yeah in general I still have to find that spot between how stuff is perceived and geometrically correct. Link to comment

Member red… Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 I hear you but I'm also paid to prevent them from stuff they really don't want once aware. Link to comment
