Diagram illustrating how to draw a euro symbol
|
This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with
{{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “EuroConstLargeColor.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter. |
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This diagram illustrates how to draw a euro symbol, based on official documentation, and has been prepared specifically for Wikipedia and released to the public domain. It's almost identical to Image:EuroConstLarge.png except that it is in color, making it prettier to look at but more difficult to read.
The official diagrams of the euro symbol are copyrighted and downloadable from the official European Commission site, and include:
Apart from the copyright issue, the official diagrams are provided in odd formats (TIFF and WMF) and have very rough edges (that is, they display and print poorly) compared to a normal illustration, for some reason. The Wikipedia version was created with Adobe Illustrator and rendered in Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format. It bases the guidelines for construction of the symbol on the key data provided for the official symbol, but it was prepared from scratch and does not duplicate the official diagram, and it is released to the public domain. The colors indicated on the diagram are the official recommendations of the European Commission, but the colors actually used in the diagram are merely the closest approximations to the official colors (because matching colors precisely requires special software and hardware). |
