Actually none of those documents has bee produced by FSF, India or
other. They are all contributed by individuals, on the invitation of
FSF-India to make appropriate posters, logos, etc. I guess you could
carry advocacy/fanaticism to the point of not accepting any document
(which includes pdfs and graphics) that has been produced using
proprietary tools, but it'd be a bit extreme IMO.
Similarly, the Kandalaya logo was produced by a professional using
Adobe Photoshop. I have no compunctions in putting it up on my web
site, even though I myself wouldn't use Photoshop (and not just
because I don't even know how to draw a circle in Gimp either!)
