Optica International Brand Guidelines | Introduction

Using These Guidelines

The Optica Brand Guidelines describe the basic elements of the Optica brand identity and provide detailed examples of its application. The correct application of the basic elements is essential to maintain the integrity of the Optica logo and brand identity. Consequently, these guidelines must be followed closely as an deviation will weaken the overall brand image. These guidelines have been divided into seven sections, each dealing with a specific elements of the identity from basic elements to signage. They are intended for use by the organization as a whole, and by graphic designers, advertising agencies, printers and other outside consultants or manufacturers who have responsibility for design, creation or production of any item that is associated with Optica. If you require any further advice or assistance regarding the use of the Optica brand identity, please contact the Marketing Department at Optica International.

Logo Dimensions

Minimum Clear Space

With the introduction of the Optica International logo, we will focus on building strong brand equity that can be leveraged across all of our regions. With consistent use of the Optica logo, our brand will become an asset that increases in value over time. They must never be altered or modified in any way.

The Optica logo is the logo used within our visual system and is used for all products and service communications. The Optica logo is comprised of the Optica symbol, the custom-crafted Optica logotype and the product descriptor which are equally important. The relationship between these elements has been established and these proportions are fixed as illustrated.

Optica International Brand Guidelines | Basic Elements

Master artwork Always use master artwork for reproduction. The Optica logo is available as master artwork from the Optica Marketing Department. Please refer to page 56 for master artwork.

When referred to in text When the Optica name is written in text (as shown here), with no space: Optica.

4”

1.125”

The minimum clear space is equal to half the height of the square determined by the Optica symbol, as illustrated. The Optica logo should always stand out from other graphic elements. In order to protect the integrity of the logo and ensure maximum impact, a clear space area has been defined. This space should be kept clear of all type and other elements.

Section 1.2

Section 1.3

Preferred Logo Sizes The Optica logo is used in a variety of applications that will be discussed in further detail later in these guidelines. We use a limited number of fixed sizes shown here, to create a visual standard, minimize variation and coordinate printed material sign-off.

Whenever possible, the Optica logo should be used at .5”, 1”, 1.5”, 2” or 3”, measured from the left edge of the symbol to the right edge of the letter ‘a’ in ‘Optica’.

.5”

1”

3”

1.5”

Minimum size 30mm is the minimum size for the Optica logo. Below this size, the integrity of the Optica logo is compromised and the product descriptor becomes illegible.

Large format When a larger format Optica logo is required for display use (i.e., banners), you may enlarge the master artwork to the required size. Remember that the logo elements and their relationship must not be altered or modified in any way.

Section 1.4

Logo Reproduction Versions There are two different reproduction versions of the Optica logo: full-color (preferred), and one-color.

Consistent use of the full-color logo is essential to strengthen brand awareness. For Optica colors, please refer to page 17.

Full-color logo (preferred) The full-color Optica logo (Optica dark blue) is the preferred reproduction version; it should be used whenever possible.

One-color logo Use the one-color logo when reproduction methods prohibit the use of the full-color or one-color halftone logo. Use the one-color logo for laser-printed documents and reproduction

Logo Squared When measurements not possible, perfect square boxes should all go together as shown and the logo can be built through following each of the corresponding boxes. While digital resources are preferred, this technique will work in countries where these preferred resources may not be available.

Optica International Brand Guidelines | Basic Elements

in newsprint. The one-color logo is also used for special finishes, such as etching and embossing. All special finishes should be authorized by the Optica Marketing Department. The one-color logo may also be reproduced in Optica blue or reversed white out.

Master artwork Always use master artwork for reproduction. The Optica logo is available as master artwork from the Optica Marketing Department. Please refer to page 56 for master artwork.

White Background Preferred Background Colors While all three colors can be reversed out for the logo, the black background and dark blue background is preferred.

15


Section 1.5

Brand Colors There are only two Optica brand colors: Optica dark blue and Optica light blue. Optica colors play a very important role within the Optica brand identity and help strengthen brand awareness. White also plays a key role. A white background enhances the vibrancy of our Optica colors.

The Optica International two logo swatches used throughout the company as the dark and the light Optica blue.

16

Optica International Brand Guidelines | Basic Elements

Use the special (or spot) colors when printing a large area of a Optica color. This will ensure a vibrant and crisp result. For example, when a large area of Optica dark blue is printed using four-color process, it does not maintain the same crispness and energy as when printed in special (or spot) color. It is vital that Optica colors look consistent from piece to piece

and medium to medium. To help achieve this, color references are listed for printing offset spot colors (PANTONE), printing process colors (CMYK), and for onscreen applications (RGB and Hex). Never match to the colors as they appear on screen/ monitor or color printouts.

The colors shown on this page and throughout these guidelines have not been evaluated by Pantone, Inc. for accuracy and may not match the PANTONE Color Standards. Consult current PANTONE Publications for accurate color. PANTONE速 is the property of Pantone, Inc.

Special (or spot) colors To ensure color reproduction accuracy, spot colors are selected. These are specially mixed inks which are visually matched by the printer to the current edition of the PANTONE速 formula guide printer edition.

Coated Paper Optica Dark Blue PANTONE 213 C Uncoated Paper Optica Dark Blue PANTONE 213 U

Coated Paper Optica Light Blue PANTONE 204 C Uncoated Paper Optica Light Blue PANTONE 204 U

Four-color process When printing is restricted to four-color process, use the CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) percentage breakdowns indicated here. Process colors should be visually matched to the current edition of the PANTONE PROCESS formula guide printer edition.

100 57 0 33

59 34 0 0

Screen applications Optica colors used on-screen should visually match as close as possible to printed Optica colors. Use the RGB (red, green, and blue) breakdown or Hex value indicated here for screen applications to minimize variation of colors, as screens will vary in hue and density across platforms.

0 red (R) 75 green (G) 134 blue (B)

Incorrect Logo Uses

Section 1.6

The Optica logo should always be reproduced from master artwork and never be altered or modified in any way. Changing the Optica logo weakens its impact and detracts from the consistent image we want to project. Here are some examples of how the Optica logo should never be reproduced.

Section 1.7

Background Color Control Background Color Control It is preferred that the full-color and one-color Optica logo are reproduced on a white background whenever possible to enhance the vibrancy of our color and maximize the impact of the Optica logo on communications.

White background preferred

Solid color background The Optica logo may also be reversed white out of a Optica blue, or black background. Background image When positioning the Optica logo over a light background

image, use the full-color logo (Optica blue). Make sure the background is uncluttered and that the logo has ‘room to breath.’ See ‘Full-color over a light background image’ example on this page.

The Optica logo may be reversed white out of a dark image. As mentioned above, look for an area of the image where the background is uncluttered and dark enough for the logo to stand out. See ‘Reversed white out of a dark background image’ example on this page.

Reversed white out of Optica blue

Reversed white out of black

Section 1.8

Optica Official Typeface Primary typeface Frutiger 55 Std is the primary Optica typeface. It has been chosen for its rounded corners, contemporary and clean appearance, which makes it legible across all media. Frutiger Std is an essential element of the Optica brand identity and should be used for published materials.

General style guidelines For titles and body copy always use initial capitals to start a phrase or sentence. Do not modify default word spacing, letter spacing or tracking.

Secondary typeface Adobe Garamond is the secondary Optica typeface and may be used when a different tone is required. Adobe Garamond was chosen for its proportions, refinement and delicacy. The typeface adds a touch of classical elegance to the Optica brand.

In the 1990s, we investigated countless optical glass compositions, bearing in mind the possible effects of each on the environment. Approximately 100 types of optical glass contained lead or arsenic. We have recognized that this fact is one of the most significant environmental aspects of our business activities and products. Therefore, we decided to develop a new environmentally sound glass and employ it in our products. We demanded that the new manufacturing departments of Optica and Hikari Glass. During the year ended March 2008, we achieved an eco-glass utilization rate of over 98% of all glass shipped, including to non-affiliated companies. Optica offers a very extensive range of optical equipment. Because of the sheer diversity, some products incorporate parts that may not accommodate Eco-glass. We will continue to switch over to the new material, however, trying technological limit.

Optica believes that thorough enforcement of compliance, defined more broadly than as simple observance of legal compliance, is necessary in order to maintain and strengthen the trust it has earned over many years from all of its stakeholders. In addition to earning the trust of stakeholders through ensuring each individual is conscious of compliancerelated issues, technological capabilities. For this reason, an optimal system for maintenance and improvement of quality is organized, by aiming to implement measures that take the customer’s perspective into consideration at all times. In the 1990s, we investigated countless optical glass compositions, bearing in mind the possible effects of each on the environment. Approximately 100 types of optical glass contained lead or arsenic. We have recognized that this fact is one of the most significant environmental aspects of our business activities and products. Therefore, we decided to develop a new environmentally sound glass and employ it in our products. We demanded that the new manufacturing departments of Optica and Hikari Glass. During the year ended March 2008, we achieved an eco-glass utilization rate of over 98% of all glass shipped, including to non-affiliated companies. Optica offers a very extensive range of optical equipment. Because of the sheer diversity, some products incorporate parts that may not accommodate Eco-glass. We will continue to switch over to the new material, however, trying technological limit.

Introduction to Advertising & Publications

Section 3.1

Our current advertising campaign builds on the concept of telling Optica International history. We asked key consumers to tell us what interested them in our brand and explain why their loyalty was so set on Optica International for change in their society. Through these interviews we learned what the consumer would like to know and how we might effect their everyday lives in a positive way. These stories will drive Optica to keep on track and to show others why our brand outlasts and shows up other brands in the same category. This may also include the fact that we cover more area’s than most companies can and stay with strong quality baseline. The role of the ads and mailers is to build a set of quality historical evidences that will act as a benchmark for our brand, our reputation, ignite the imagination of our audiences to the possibilities of living or working with Optica and ultimately add value to our product. The following pages illustrate the application of these “guidelines” from newsletters to brochures.

Optica’s Beginnings

Optica’s Mission

Optica International started in a small town in

Optica International involved in broad spectrum, businesses centered around specializations in imaging products, precision equipment, and instruments. Optica’s efforts to provide the kind of products and technologies that will exceed its customers’ expectations are already achieving impressive results.

Over the last 90 years, Optica hasTexas called Eugene by a man called Richard consistently moved the photography, Emerson. To this day Optica remains in the imaging and optics industry forward . Emerson family and the stories of how Optica

began are still told. Emerson, a young clerk, working at a law office, became intrigued by how things looked through his water glass. Soon all things passing through the office were scrutinized under and around the glass to see the various illusions and distortions. Soon in Mr. Emerson’s free time, he started seeing how various glasses would distort images and how to use those distortions to their best advantage. Within a few years, Optica Inc was founded and with a brilliant leader went on to surpass all dreams that were set out to accomplish.

Optica leads the way in the North American mobile satellite system (MSAT) and began providing the USA and Canada with an unprecedented range of innovative mobile satellite services in 1995. MSAT is the first dedicated system in North America for mobile telephone, radio, facsimile, paging, position location, and data communications for users on land, at sea, and in the air. Optica International, signed contracts with Hughes and Spar Aerospace Ltd. of Canada in 1990 to build their respective satellites for the initial systems. Optica owns and operates visual focused spacecrafts. These provide complementary

mobile services, and will provide backup and restoration capacity. MSAT-1 operates at 106.5 degrees West longitude. AMSC-1 is at 101 degrees West. Hughes was the prime contractor for AMSC’s satellite, called AMSC-1, and Spar was the prime for TMI’s spacecraft, called MSAT-1. Hughes Space and Communications Company in El Segundo, Calif., managed the program and provided the Hughes 601 satellite buses. Spar’s Space Systems Group is providing the highpower payloads and conducting spacecraft integration and testing at the Canadian Space Agency’s David Florida Laboratory

in Ottawa. The payload is the result of a 10-year mobile payload technical development program supported by the Canadian federal government and Spar investment. In October 2000, Optica International acquired three units within Opticas Electronics Corporation: Opticas Space and Communications Company, Opticas Electron Dynamics, and Spectrolab, Inc., in addition to Opticas Electronics’ interest in HRL, the company’s primary research laboratory. The four are now part of Boeing’s newest subsidiary, Boeing Satellite Systems, Inc. Each satellite has the capacity to support up to 2000

simultaneous radio channels, depending on the type of antenna used and bandwidth allocated. Communications between the mobile users and the satellites are accomplished in L-band; terrestrial feeder stations use Ku-band to communicate with the satellite and with one another. L-band effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is 57.3 dBW. A 30-inch (.75-meter) shaped reflector antenna connects the Earth stations in Ku-band. Its EIRP is 36 dBW. Such high signal amplification by the satellite permits the use of small, lowpower mobile and portable antennas. The Ku-band is driven by one powerful

traveling-wave tube amplifier (with two spares accessible). Each satellite uses four spot beams at L-band to cover North America and 200 miles (300 kilometers) of coastal waters. Another beam serves Alaska and Hawaii. The Caribbean beam includes Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Mexico. Each beam transponder is equipped with eight surface acoustic wave filters covering the 29 MHz L-band allocation, allowing selection of filters to match traffic needs and to coordinate with other international users. The spacecraft were designed with the capability for frequency reuse between the North American east and

Logo color The Optica International logo can be embroidered or screen printed in Optica Dark blue (full-color logo), black or white.
