CONTENTS OF THIS DISK OR DIRECTORY
=======================================================================

These files contain digital representations of two of the University of 
Georgia's new logos (introduced in 1989):

        1785*.* -- The "round" logo, depicting the Arch with the
                   date "1785" below it

        uga*.*  -- The "thin" logo, with the words "The University
                   of Georgia"

The third ("thick") logo, similar to the "thin" logo but with the digits 
1785 reversed on a thick line, will be made available if there is 
sufficient demand.  It is intrinsically harder to print on a laser 
printer (because black tends to encroach on white).

LIST OF FILES
=======================================================================

Vector images:
==============

  (Scalable to any size.  Use vector rather than bitmap images whenever 
  possible.)

  1785.cdr, uga.cdr    -- Logos in Corel Draw 3.0 format.

  1785.eps, uga.eps    -- Logos in Encapsulated PostScript format.

  1785x.eps, ugax.eps  -- Same, in a subset of PostScript.  Try these
                          if your software won't import the previous two.

        Note: .EPS files are text files.  All the other files here
              are binary files.  Some download protocols (FTP, Kermit)
              care about the difference.

  1785.pct, uga.pct    -- Logos in Macintosh PICT format.

  1785.wpg, uga.wpg    -- Logos in Word Perfect graphics format.


Bitmap images:
=============

  (For use only at relatively small sizes.  Look closely at the quality 
  of your printout.  In particular, the 256x256 bitmaps are for use only 
  on computer screens; they are not detailed enough for printing on 
  paper.)

  1785bmp.zip, ugabmp.zip  -- ZIPped files of Windows bitmap images
                              (in various sizes, up to 4096 pixels 
                              wide).

  1785tif.zip, ugatif.zip  -- Same, in TIFF format.

  1785gif.zip, ugagif.zip  -- Same, in GIF format.


Windows wallpaper:
=================

  1785wall.zip  -- ZIPped file of .BMP files suitable for use as 
                   "wallpaper" in Microsoft Windows.  Not for printing.

POLICIES
=======================================================================

CAUTION: These logos are trademarks of the University of Georgia. Use 
outside the University (e.g., printing on T-shirts or souvenirs) 
requires licensing.  Contact the Office of Public Information (542-3354) 
for details.

Complete policies for using these logos are available from the Office of 
Public Information.  Here is a brief summary:

(1) These logos replace all other University insignia, except that the 
official seal ("Sigillum Universitatis Georgiae") is still used on 
certificates and proclamations, and the bulldog is still the symbol of 
the Athletic Association.

(2) The logo in one of its three forms must appear on or within all 
University publications.  The words "The University of Georgia" must 
appear on the front cover.

(3) The logos must not be altered in any way unless the alternations are
approved by the Office of Public Information.

(4) Images must be camera-ready quality (i.e., comparable to the quality
of conventional photo-offset printing).  Blurred or obviously 
"computerish" images (visible pixels, jagged lines) are not acceptable. 

(5) If you are printing in color, contact Public Information for the
official color specifications.  Other colors are not permitted.

(6) All units of the University must use officially approved formats for
letterheads, business cards, and the like.  Contact Public Information 
for details.

(7) The "thin" logo ("The University of Georgia") may not be reproduced
smaller than a width of 2.375 inches (6.0 cm).

(8) The "round" logo ("1785") may not be reproduced smaller than a width 
of 0.44 inch (1.1 cm).

(9) The typeface in the logo, and on UGa stationery, is Galliard Roman. 
To identify it, look especially at the position of the serifs on the 
lower case "a" and the upper case "G".

[Technical note: The type in the logo is not _unaltered_ Galliard.  The 
logo designer apparently introduced a number of variations to make the 
logo look more reminiscent of 18th-century printing.  For example, the 
top of the T slants slightly upward, and the digit 5 has no serif.]

HOW THESE FILES WERE PREPARED
=======================================================================

You are not looking at the simple output of a scanner.  Here's what was 
done:

(1) The logos were scanned at 1600 dots per inch.

(2) Resulting files were vectorized with Corel Trace.

(3) The geometric parts of the logo (horizontal bars, arch, and circle) 
were completely redrawn in Corel Draw, using the original image as a 
guide.

(4) The type in the logos was extensively touched up; enlarged printouts 
were compared to enlarged copies of the original logo using a light 
table.

(5) Vector image files were generated.

(6) Bitmap images were generated, and those measuring 1024 pixels or 
smaller were then pixel-edited in Corel PhotoPaint to improve 
legibility.
