Olympique Lyonnais UEFA Champions League 2018/2019 Font

The kits of Olympique Lyonnais (Lyon) for the 2018/2019 season is supplied by Adidas. Olympique Lyonnais is using a different custom font for its matches in the UEFA Champions League.



The Lyon font only contains uppercase letters and numbers. The numbers has shadow and to make this possible in a font, the base number and the shadow must be separated. The base numbers (number 0 in the preview) are located in the normal number positions. The shadow (number 1 in the preview) is generated by pressing the Shift key, holding it down and then pressing the number key. To create a shadowed number, similar to the 2 and 8 in the preview image, press the desired number and then press the Shift+number keys. For example, to generate a shadowed 1, press the 1 key to generate the number 1, then press the Shift key and hold it then press the 1 key. If you prefer to use a different color for the shadow like in the Lyon font, set the desired color for the text before you create the shadow.

A preview/demo font with very limited glyph set is available for download to give you a chance to see if the font serves your needs. The instruction on how to get the full/complete font is indicated in the copyright field of the preview font and in a text file included in the preview font download pack.
