Typefaces

During development, the User Interface employed the Zurich Extended font from Bitstream, Inc. for all header and menu text. Upon release of Indivo 3.0 Beta, we realized that it would be wholly inappropriate (and unlawful) to distribute a commercial font file with our open-source interface, so a search began for a suitable alternative from the public domain.

A lengthy scouring of Abstract Fonts led us to Stephen Moye's "Paddington" collection, based on Edward Johnston's 1918 typeface, Johnston Sans, which is used throughout the London Underground. The entire package -- Regular, Bold, Italic, Bold-Italic, Small Caps, and Small Caps Bold -- can be downloaded at Typoasis.

The main IndivoHealth title is rendered in 40px Paddington Small Caps.

The main subtitle, "Personally Controlled Health Record," is 14px Paddington Small Caps.

The small version of "IndivoHealth Personally Controlled Health Record," seen on inner pages of the user interface, is 18px and 14px Paddington Small Caps.
