Logo and Trademark Usage
Introduction
This Logo and Trademark Usage Guide is designed to help you communicate about
IBM products, as well as supply you with camera-ready IBM logo sheets.
The IBM Brand is one of the most valuable in the world. Research shows that our
brand is one of the most highly recognized worldwide. You can increase the
effectiveness of all your marketing efforts by presenting the IBM Brand
cohesively, and in accordance with these guidelines.
Ads:
The eight bar logo of IBM may not typically be used in co-branding
advertisements. An exception can be found in order to identify the IBM products
as IBM's in instances where multi-company advertised products are used in a
single layout.
Catalogs:
The eight bar logo of IBM may be utilized in price lists and catalogs for the
purpose of identifying the IBM products when placed in close proximity to those
products.
Do not use IBM's eight bar logo in marketing or promotional activities other
than as described above, and use the guidelines which follow in creating your
materials.
Using the IBM Logo
A logo serves the same purpose as an individual's signature. It authenticates
the source of a product, service, document or communication, and represents the
company it stands for.
IBM has only one corporate logo. Multiple versions of a logo, like multiple
versions of a signature, confuse its meaning and dilute its power. Don't alter
the IBM log, even in humor.
Correct: (Visual picture of the correct way to show/use logo.)
Incorrect: (Visual pictures showing incorrect ways to show/use logo.)

Responsibility for customer satisfaction should be clear and unambiguous.
Because they can be confusing, multiple identities or joint logos should
generally be avoided. Use of the logo with any non-IBM identity (even when owned
wholly by IBM) is restricted. Such use requires special consideration by IBM
Corporate Brand Management.
Incorrect: (Visual pictures showing incorrect ways to show/use logo.)
There are specific financial and legal, as well as identity, requirements that
apply to authenticating statements or endorsement lines for affiliated
companies. Use of the logo for this purpose will generally be avoided, and
requires IBM legal approval.
Correct: (Visual picture showing correct way to show/use logo.)
Incorrect: (Visual picture showing incorrect way to show/use logo.)
Generally, the logo should be separated from other elements by a distance
approximately equal to its height. This distance, as shown here, should be
considered the minimum uninterrupted space surrounding the logo.
Correct: (Visual picture showing correct way to show/use logo.)
In all applications, the logo should be freestanding and sufficiently distant
from all other text and graphics.
Correct: (Visual picture showing correct way to show/use logo.)
Incorrect: (Visual picture showing incorrect way to show/use logo.)
At no time may any tagline by used in conjunction with the IBM logo, such as in
the following examples of incorrect use.
Example 1: (Visual picture showing incorrect way to show/use logo and
tagline.)
Example 2: (Visual picture showing incorrect way to show/use logo and
tagline.)
Use only authorized electronic or camera-ready reproductions of the logo
included in this guide. When using electronic versions, be careful not to alter
the proportions of the logo.

Correct: (Visual picture showing correct logo reproduction.)
Incorrect: (Visual picture showing incorrect logo reproduction.)
Special care should be taken when the logo appears on monitors and video
screens. When the resolution does not allow for accurate reproduction, use the
letters "IBM" in the same typeface used for any accompanying copy.
Correct: (Visual picture showing correct logo typeface for accurate
reproduction.)
Incorrect: (Visual picture showing incorrect logo typeface reproduction.)
The IBM Brand Identity is represented by the graphic elements shown below.
Please avoid the use of these elements, and develop distinct identities of your
own.

face- Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Antiqua.)
Logo Color
The logo generally appears in black, white or IBM blue.
For IBM blue, use PANTONE(R) 2718. This standard Pantone color replaces the
previous blue colors that are currently in use.
Since formulas vary by printer, be sure to attach a Pantone color swatch to all
artwork in order to ensure accurate color matches.
When four-color process printing is used, have the printer match PANTONE(R) 2718
as accurately as possible.
On full-color advertising, the logo should always appear in IBM blue.
When the logo is dropped out to white from a background color or photograph, a
special negative version must be used to maintain high-quality reproduction.
Positive and negative logos require different artwork and are not
interchangeable.
Positive Logo: (Visual picture of positive logo.)

7
Negative Logo: (Visual picture of negative logo.)
Special care is needed when the logo appears over images or pictures. If the
background is dark, the logo should drop out to white. If the background is
light, the logo should overprint in black. Be sure the background around the
logo is uniform in tone and does not obscure any part of the logo.
Correct: (Visual picture of the logo appearing over images or
pictures.)
Incorrect: (Visual picture of the logo appearing incorrectly over
images or pictures.)
Registration Xxxx
The logo must appear on all IBM-related literature, accompanied by the (R)
registration xxxx (or appropriate xxxx for your geography), positioned as shown
below.
When the logo appears on both the front and back covers of a printed piece, the
(R) is required only on the back cover.
In cases where there is no back cover, such as a poster or banner, the (R)
appears on the front.
While a registration xxxx is not required in all geographies, we recommend that
it be used worldwide.
(Visual picture of the logo with three alternatives for placement of
registration xxxx.)
Copyright Notice
A copyright notice should appear on all advertising and communication materials,
as in the example below.
(C) International Business Machines Corporation 1997.
Trademarks
The IBM striped logo is a registered trademark of the International Business
Machines Corporation. A footnote/attribution, such as the following, must appear
on all materials to identify the trademark:

The letters "IBM" are also a registered trademark and are often used to identify

placed adjacent to them, with the following approved language:
The marked (*) terms are trademarks or registered trademarks of IBM

First reference in text to all IBM product and service names should be preceded
by IBM and followed by the proper trademark symbol. You may use (R) and (TM) as
appropriate or an * with a footnote as above.

This may be included with other legal text within the document, or on the back
cover.
