The Parisine typeface is a custom typeface developed by Jean-François Porchez in 1996 for the signage of the Paris Métro but also tramways, busses and RER parts operated by the RATP in Île-de-France. In 1999, the font was extended to a font family for multiple uses like communication material, maps, etc. In 2000, hinted TrueType versions were added for internal corporate use. The name Parisine is a trademark of the RATP.
