Re: [ubuntu-art] .doc, .xls, etc icons in Humanity Update
True but that can be depending on the PDF program wich your standard I use xPDF.

It goes without saying that when everyone associates a certain look/letter/number with something they don't search for other visual metaphors. People expect certain things to look certain ways ;) -- Ken Ok but it feels uncomfortable Thats really awesome. :) Then using those files types should be reduced rather than complaining about the icon ;) Those filetypes are supported by OOo. No need to associate them to icons referencing to Ms applications not supported under Linux. The icon is used only when someone is saving the file to be MS office complaint. Why cant we stop using that format , rather than nit-pick over what one has just chosen to continue to support? As far as I know, there is no reference to Adobe in the pdf files icons. I'd suggest you check again ;) Ok well, you are right. And that is basically... lame. Evince is the default PDF reader, why should the icon be related to Adobe? There is a difference between PDF and Adobe / Evince. :) PDF is an _open_ Portable Document Format. and the logo isnt even been used in full. ;) Adobe is a company with several apps and Reader , Acrobat is the pdf reader and editor respectively. Note the adobe logo isnt used. Their logo is different. Evince is an app too and not a format ... Even under MacOSX the pdf files icons have no reference to the Adobe brand, I think this is (mainly) due to the differences that Apple and Adobe have had. In the past I have had problems using Adobe's PDF logo in another icon set I worked on. They contacted us and told us to change it. It is a slippery slope, you want to make it recognizable but yet different enough to avoid legal problems. http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Icon_Design has some valuable info, specifically http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/MimeType_Icons -- Ken I'd rather think this is because Adobe has nothing to do with pdf anymore; I still think that no reference to an app should appear in a file icon if this app is not installed and meant to deal with this kind of files.

I'd say: a mime-type icon should, or rather may, only include or refer to an application icon, if that application is the only one that deals with that file-type (ability to open files in a text-editor or hex-viewer or similar doesn't count, of course). I totally agree. That means doc, xls, ppt files should not refer to Ms Office apps, neither should pdf refer to Adobe or psd to Photoshop -- ok the last one is the only that can entirely deal with psd, however some image viewers can render psd nicely and The Gimp can edit them to a certain extend (plus it seems strange to have a reference in Linux to an app that is not even available on this platform). -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art -- J.D.
