Graphic Signature<br />

To maximize the capital height of the signature<br />

typography, only the vertical signature arrangement<br />

is used on pylon signs. Examples of typical<br />

signatures are shown in the drawings at the right.<br />

Note: The Monogram may not be used alone on<br />

this sign.<br />

Typography<br />

For information on signature typography and<br />

other typography, see the general guidelines<br />

on page 02.<br />

Color<br />

To ensure legibility of the graphic signature<br />

under adverse viewing conditions, black is used<br />

in the signature Monogram and typography.<br />

As usual, in the graphic signature Laser Red<br />

is used only in the Laser Line.<br />

Dynamic Monogram<br />

The three-quarter version of the Dynamic Monogram<br />

is used on pylon signs. It is reproduced<br />

slightly darker than the background grey.<br />

Note: On all faces of the pylon sign, the tops of<br />

the Dynamic Monograms are horizontally aligned<br />

parallel to the ground line. Because the top surface<br />

of the dynamic base slopes, the Monograms<br />

are not trimmed as usual:<br />

• On the two front face panels of the pylon, the bottoms<br />

of the Monograms are trimmed at an angle.<br />

• On the back face of the sign, the Monogram is<br />

trimmed higher than usual.<br />

To facilitate this trim, the signature Monogram<br />

is used instead of the Dynamic Monogram.<br />

Lighting<br />

The pylon sign must be lighted with a combination<br />

of internal and external illumination<br />

to make the unique shape, dynamic base, and<br />

message visible at night:<br />

• The signature Monogram and Laser Line are<br />

internally illuminated.<br />

• Signature typography and other typography<br />

(if used), the Dynamic Monogram, and the<br />

dynamic base are externally illuminated.<br />
