LOGO COLOR VARIATIONS - ENGLISH VERSION The PAC Technologies logo should be reproduced in color whenever possible. For specific color values to use when reproducing the logo (4-color process, RGB), refer to the Color Palette section. White is the most effective background on which to reproduce the color logo because it provides a clean, crisp contrast for the logo’s color and elements. If color reproduction
is not available or is not a viable option, the logo should be reproduced in solid black or as a fullreverse in white out of a color background. When the PAC Technologies logo is placed on a photographic image, the image behind the logo must be light enough to provide contrast for the positive logo or dark enough to provide contrast for the reverse logo.
4-color logo, RGB logo – for use on white backgrounds or where there is sufficient contrast between the logo and the background for reproduction.
4-color logo, RGB logo – for use on Dark backgrounds or where there is sufficient contrast between the logo and the background for reproduction.
4-color logo, RGB logo – for use on Black backgrounds or where there is sufficient contrast between the logo and the background for reproduction.
Black logo with Gradient – for use when color reproduction is not an option.
Black logo – for use when color reproduction is not an option.
Full-reverse logo – for use when full-color reproduction is not an option or viable solution on dark or black backgrounds.

CLEAR SPACE To preserve the PAC Technologies logo’s integrity, always maintain a minimum clear space around the logo. This clear space isolates the logo from competing graphic elements such as other logos, copy, photography or background patterns that may divert attention. The minimum clear space for the PAC Technologies logo is defined as the height of the blocks taken from the logo. This minimum space should be maintained as the logo is proportionally enlarged or reduced in size.

MINIMUM SIZE
0.9cm
The PAC Technologies logo retains its visual strength in a wide range of sizes. However, when the logo is reproduced in print too small, it is no longer legible and its impact is diminished. The minimum size of the logo for print is determined by the width of the PAC Technologies wordmark, which should not be reproduced in a size smaller than 0.9cm in Height.
2.75cm
