Our Logo
Primary
The primary versions of the
ProPrint logo are to be used in
all external promotion, as well
as on all legal, financial, and
internal documents.
Use in other contexts is the
creative decision of the
assigned designer.
Secondary
The secondary versions of the
ProPrint logo are to be used in
collateral, watermarking, and
social media.
Use in other contexts is the
creative decision of the
assigned designer as long as it
does not conflict with usage of
primary logos.

Our Motto
What it Means
Our motto, “Positively
Different” is a symbol of how
different our approach to the
printing industry is, and how
proud we are of that fact.
We take an immense amount
of pride in being unlike anyone
else, as we believe it makes our
product, culture, and our
relationship with our
customers better.
How to Style it
The ProPrint motto is to always
be only one color, using the
typefaces and weights
specified.

Our Image Personality
Personality
ProPrint is a company with enterprise level resources and skills, but
the customer service and attention to detail of a small business.
These traits combine to create a brand personality that is
• knowledgeable
• humble
• encouraging
• friendly
• meticulous
• personable
• reliable
• and professional
We aim to communicate these core traits in everything we do, and
depict them in every piece of artwork or collateral that we produce.
With Imagery
To communicate the previously mentioned brand personality traits, we have
adopted a modern, clean, minimalist, yet playful and colorful image
personality.
Our image personality can be best achieved with the following:
• Flat colored backgrounds
• Light use of patterns and scatter
• A maximum of two non-white/black text colors
• “Isolated” images with setting/environmental shadows
• A large amount of white space
