Logo Versions
The logo is available in versions suited to internet uses and print. Appropriate uses are indicated in the table. Raster versions are provided in multiple sizes. The sizes are given in pixels, and can be used as-is for use on websites. For print, the size you get will be determined by your print resolution -- if for example, your print resolution is 300 dpi, then divide the number of pixels by 300 to get the size in inches. You are encouraged to use the most appropriate size. Do not enlarge raster logos! If you need a large raster logo, please contact FNPS for guidance. Vector versions are provided, but you will need an appropriate program to use them.
