The font to be used for the word 'Inkscape' is '''Linux Libertine O Regular'''.
The original handwriting font (available here: http://www.paratype.com/pstore/fonts/pushkin.htm) was made by Paratype from the handwriting of Pushkin, the greatest Russian poet of 19th century - who was also an artist, loved to do sketches on the margins of his manuscripts (using ink of course :) Pushkin's characteristic "flying" handwriting style and sketches (mostly profile portraits) are very familiar to anyone speaking Russian. For licencing reasons, the font was changed to '''Euphoria Script''' in 2015.

short remark:
the tagline "Draw freely" with a font that it is _not_ free is a contradiction for me ([[User:FZap]])
