The solution we were using was a True Type font (Font marker symbol) with geological symbols (as ArcGIS with the geology ttf symbols). We cannot use directly this ESRI police ( FAQ: What are the applicable copyright restrictions on Esri fonts?" <http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/32155 > ) but it is relatively easy to create a new True Type Font with geological symbols with FontForge <https://fontforge.github.io/en-US/> . You draw the symbols with a classical interface
<http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/file/n5248101/fontforge2.jpg> and you generate the True Type Font (look at QGIS and fonts as symbols, use and creation with FontForge <http://www.portailsig.org/content/qgis-et-les-polices-de-caracteres-comme-symboles-utilisation-et-creation-avec-fontforge> , in French but the figures are universal). You can even copy/paste a SVG symbol as a new character of the font or export a character to a SVG file . You can change the color and the size of a character without problem and it is easy to distribute -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Geological-Map-Symbols-Continued-tp5248087p5248101.html Sent from the Quantum GIS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
