Common Mistakes
The following are examples of common mistakes to look out for when displaying the logo:

Do not scale the logo disproportionately. The blocks should remain square when scaled. The text should also remain proportional when scaled.

Do not add text to the logo.

Do not remove text from the logo.

Do not alter the typeface.

Do not alter the placement of the text.

Do not alter the symbol portion of the logo. Ensure that the blocks are square and properly spaced. There should be equal white space on the sides of each block.

Do not reduce the logo to the point where the text is illegible. The minimum size for printed pieces should be 2″ wide from the edge of the blocks to the edge of the text.

Do not display the full-color logo on colored backgrounds or paper. The full-color logo should be displayed on a white background. Use the alternate one-color or grayscale logos available on the Downloads and Resources page for special cases where a colored background is required.

Do not modify the full-color logo in order to print one-color garments such as t-shirts. Use the alternate one-color logos available on the Downloads and Resources page.
