Hi at all,
I just read about a font family called B612 created by Airbus for Aircraft cockpits. It's open source and probably a good font for Citect SCADA that we can install and use by default https://softwareforums.aveva.com/cfs-file/__key/system/emoji/1f609.svg
The genesis of B612
In 2010, Airbus initiated a research collaboration with ENAC and Université de Toulouse III on a prospective study to define and validate an “Aeronautical Font”: the challenge was to improve the display of information on the cockpit screens, in particular in terms of legibility and comfort of reading, and to optimize the overall homogeneity of the cockpit.
2 years later, Airbus came to find Intactile DESIGN to work on the design of the eight typographic variants of the font. This one, baptized B612 in reference to the imaginary asteroid of the aviator Saint Exupéry, benefited from a complete hinting on all the characters.
You can read the full story and download it here: http://b612-font.com/
I’ve attached a screenshot where I compared it with some text that comes with Citect SCADA 2018. B612 is the lower line.
