Flutter logo for Japanese website

Open toshi-kuji opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Hello Flutter team,

I am planning to translate the whole website into Japanese and deploy it under docs.flutterjp.dev by hopefully EOY. This is a question regarding the usage of the Flutter logo/trademark.

Is swapping the "Flutter" portion of the logo into Katakana (syllabary for foreign words) acceptable under the Brand Guidelines or any internal policies you have?

Ex.

flutter_ja FUbY7vjakAAnsEI

This transformation is only applied to the logo displayed in this Japanese version of the website. Also, the font used for Katakana is Noto Sans JP from Google Fonts.

Please kindly guide me if this is not the right place for this type of question. Thank you so much!

@timsneath, I've read through the brand guidelines, and it seems ok. Though perhaps they need to add the disclaimer (tweaked from the brand guidelines page): “Flutter and the related logo are trademarks of Google LLC. [Title of website] is not affiliated with or otherwise sponsored by Google LLC.”

This is really a question for our marketing team, but no -- I don't think we want to see the logo edited.

"Don’t alter, distort, or modify the Flutter trademarks in any way. This includes varying the spelling of the “Flutter” name, or displaying the Flutter logo with color variations or unapproved visual elements."

Thank you for taking the time to answer this. I've also read the guidelines, but I was not 100% sure since Flutter China seems to have their own variant logo.

I will leave the logo as is, if it's not allowed to modify, however, please let me know if there is any exception.
