He used this lion in the illustrations for Donald&nbsp;Knuth's original <i><span class="t-logo">T<span class="e">e</span>X</span>book</i>, for Leslie&nbsp;Lamport's <i><span class="t-logo">L<span class="a">a</span>T<span class="e">e</span>X</span> book</i>, and for other books having to do with <span class="t-logo">T<span class="e">e</span>X</span>, so his work is familiar to everyone in the community. Because of that, his beautiful and insightful drawings have also graced conference posters, tee shirts, and coffee mugs. </p><p> You can use this drawing if you like, either personally as on a login screen or publicly as on a web page. For public uses we would appreciate an acknowledgment such as <i>&ldquo;CTAN lion drawing by Duane Bibby&rdquo;</i>. You can get <a href="/lion/files">high resolution versions</a> in case you want to touch up the scans. </p><p> Thank you, Duane! </p><p> In the mean time a <a href="/assets/lion/lion.svg">vectorized version</a> of the drawing in SVG format is available. It increasingly replaces the pixel images on the CTAN portal. </p> </div> <div class="right"> <div class="lion-overlay"> <div class="wagging-lion active"> <img class="layer-0" src="/assets/lion/lion-layers-0.svg"> <img class="layer-5" src="/assets/lion/lion-layers-5.svg"> <img class="layer-4" src="/assets/lion/lion-layers-4.svg"> <img class="layer-3" src="/assets/lion/lion-layers-3.svg"> <img class="layer-2" src="/assets/lion/lion-layers-2.svg"> <img class="layer-1" src="/assets/lion/lion-layers-1.svg"> </div> </div> </div> <div class="clear"></div> </main> <div class="foot"> <a class="guestbook" href="/guestbook" title="Leave some words for other visitors" >Guest Book</a> <a class="sitemap" href="/sitemap" title="Show the structure of this site" >Sitemap</a> <a class="contact" href="/contact" title="Get contact information for the Web site" >Contact</a> <a class="contact-author" href="/help/contact-author" title="Get help on how to contact an author" >Contact Author</a> <a class="feedback" href="mailto:webmaster@ctan.org?subject=Feedback%20for%20/lion/?lang=en" title="Send feedback on the current web page to the Web masters" >Feedback</a> </div> </div> <div class="footer"> <a id="share-toggle" class="in" title="Toggle share" href="#" onClick="return toggleShare();">&nbsp;</a> <div id="share" class="in"><a class="mail fontawesome" title="Send link to this page by email" href="mailto:?subject=CTAN:%20 The TeX Lion&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F" >&#xf0e0;</a> <a class="twitter fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on Twitter" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="https://twitter.com/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F&text= The TeX Lion" >&#xf099;</a> <a class="facebook fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on Facebook" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F&t= The TeX Lion" >&#xf09a;</a> <a class="gplus fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on Google+" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F" >&#xf0d5;</a> <a class="linkedin fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on LinkedIn" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F&title= The TeX Lion&summary= The TeX Lion&source=CTAN" >&#xf0e1;</a> <a class="pinterest fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on Pinterest" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F&description= The TeX Lion&media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2Fimages%2Fctan_lion-64.png" >&#xf231;</a> <a class="xing fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on Xing" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="https://www.xing-share.com/app/user?op=share;sc_p=xing-share;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F" >&#xf168;</a> <a class="reddit fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on reddit" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="http://www.reddit.com/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctan.org%2F" >&#xf281;</a> <a class="tumblr fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on Tumblr" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="http://www.tumblr.com/share/link?url=Share link to this page on StumbleUpon&name= The TeX Lion&description= The TeX Lion" >&#xf173;</a> <a class="stumbleupon fontawesome" target="_blank" title="Share link to this page on StumbleUpon" onclick="return shareLink(this.href);" href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=Share link to this page on StumbleUpon&title= The TeX Lion" >&#xf1a4;</a> </div> <span class="date">2024-11-23 20:52 CET</span> </div> <div id="portal-message"></div> </body> </html>
