Using the DSP Logo in Your Publication
Signature Offset is committed to spreading the message of sustainability.Using this
logo on your publication tells your readers that the product they hold in their
hands has been printed with sustainability in mind. Please refer to the guidelines
below for more information about how to use this logo correctly.
Guidelines
- The DSP Logo may only be used on products printed by Signature Offset.
- The DSP Logo should never appear more prominently than any advertising or the title
of the publication or the publishing company.
- Publications with other certifications may carry the DSP Logo, but the relationship
of the logos must be equal and proportionate when applicable.
- Do not use any DSP Logo or reference the DSP Logo on your company stationery, business
cards, signs or advertising. Use of these references on such materials could incorrectly
imply more than a third-party relationship between your company and Signature Offset,
or incorrectly imply that all the products you publish have been printed by Signature Offset.
- If you use the DSP Logo on your Web site, you must ensure that visitors to your
Web site are able to clearly identify which of your publications have been printed
by Signature Offset and which have not.
- References to Signature Offset and our DSP Logo can be made only once you are authorized
by Signature Offset to use the appropriate DSP Logo on your product.
- If you discontinue using Signature Offset as your print provider, all material that
refers to our process should be immediately removed from publication, and further
use of any DSP Logos should be discontinued.
- If some of your products appearing in a Web site, brochure, ad or catalog are entitled
to bear the DSP Logo but others are not, you must ensure the wording and placement
of DSP Logo make it clear which publications are in fact printed by Signature Offset
and which are not.
- Do not use the DSP Logo in general advertising or promotional material to suggest
that other publications have, in fact, been printed by Signature Offset.
- Do not associate procedures or products that are not used in the Signature Offset
printing facilities.
- The DSP Logo and any words used to describe your publications attempts at sustainablity
must be large enough so that they can be clearly recognized and read by your customers.
- To display the DSP Logo on your promotional materials, you may use green (PMS 377
or equivalent), black or white on a dark background. Make sure to use one color
for all elements of the DSP Logo.
