Below, I created these simple vectors images in Illustrator for my leaflet inspired from some sketches I had in my book.
Font choice
I decided to use Inconsolata a monospace font, designed for code listings and the like, in print. There are a great many "programmer fonts," designed primarily for use on the screen, but in most cases do not have the attention to detail for high resolution rendering. A monospace font poses unique challenges.
First and foremost, Inconsolata is a humanist sans design, clarity and clean lines of Adrian Frutiger's Avenir (the lowercase "a", in particular, pays homage to this wonderful design), but also looked to Morris Fuller Benton's Franklin Gothic family for guidance on some of my favorite glyphs, such as lowercase "g" and "S", and, most especially, the numerals.
