Typography Color Color may be used with typography in the following ways: • Black type on a white background is always acceptable. • Colored type in the dominant color of a piece may be used for headlines, large introductory copy and large text. • White type may be reversed out on blocks of color or black. This should only be done with larger type sizes, as it can cause problems with printing and legibility. • Colored type may be reversed out of a black background, if the contrast is great enough to be legible. Avoid reversing out large amounts of body copy. Again, larger type sizes should be used, and the color should be the dominant color of the communication piece.

• Do not use colored type in a colored box. • Type may be used in larger sizes over a photograph, providing there is sufficient contrast. Type may be reversed out or overprinted, depending on the lightness of the photograph.
