How can I use the OISE signature?

• You may only use this artwork for this purpose agreed between us
• The University of Toronto signature is our legal and registered trademark. As such, it should be protected and its use, controlled. The U of T signature must always appear exactly as designed and must never be altered in any way
• U of T’s signature consists of two elements – the crest and the wordmark. These two elements may only appear together as part of the full University of Toronto signature – i.e. neither the crest nor the wordmark may be used on its own
• Any U of T signature may only appear in U of T blue (Pantone 655 or equivalent) or black. It may never appear in any other colour. When reversed or knocked out, it may only appear out of U of T blue or black, or a tint of 60% or higher of these
• The width of the crest within the signature must never appear smaller than 0.25". As the signature may not be altered in any way, the dimension of the wordmark will fall out proportionately from that
• A minimum margin of clear space must be left around the signature. The clear space must be equal to the height of the words ‘University of’

• The signature should appear top left aligned on the webpage
• The width of the signature must be a minimum of 80 pixels
• A minimum margin of clear space must be left around the signature. The clear space must be equal to the height of the words ‘University of’

• The signature should appear bottom left aligned on print material
• The width of the signature must be a minimum of 0.25”
• A minimum margin of clear space must be left around the signature. The clear space must be equal to the height of the words ‘University of’
