becomes even more competitive, the need to establish a strong, global presence is
increasingly apparent.

Our corporate identity is the face and personality
we present to the global community. It’s as important
as the products and services we provide. Our identity
is the total effect of our logos, products, brand names,
trademarks, advertising, brochures, and presentations—
everything that represents us.
Because the Cisco Systems brand cannot be
compromised, we’ve created this guide to provide
all the pertinent specifications you need to maintain
its integrity.
The guidelines in this document are not meant
to inhibit, but to improve the creative process. By
following these guidelines, the materials you create
will represent Cisco cohesively to the world. You can
view an electronic version of this document on the
Cisco Employee Connection web site at wwwin.cisco.
com/Mkt/corpid/style.html.
We have tried to provide guidelines that are easy
to follow; whenever questions arise, look for more
information on the web or contact Corporate Identity.
Changes to this guide will be provided periodically,
so be sure to update your binder when we send you
new information.
Thank you in advance for your help in following
these simple rules.

C i s c o Positioning Statement

Positioning is how our company is viewed by others in our target marketplace. While we

say about us. We can, however, greatly influence how we are positioned by communicating
to our external audiences in a clear and consistent way.

Cisco’s positioning statement is as follows: Cisco
Systems is the worldwide leader in networking for
the Internet. What does this mean? Our positioning
statement has three primary elements:
Our position — the worldwide leader
Our business — networking
Our vision— the Internet

Our position—the worldwide leader
By almost any measure, Cisco is the worldwide leader
in its field. It is the largest or best in terms of revenue,
profitability, market capitalization, market share, breadth
of products, technology, customer base, customer
satisfaction, service/support, field sales, expertise, and
so forth. But a leader isn’t just the biggest. A leader
views and responds to industry issues, customer concerns, and technology opportunities with greater
responsibility and greater credibility. A leader has
higher responsibilities and greater stature.

Our business—networking
So, what are we the leader in? It’s networking—giving
people access to the information they need by connecting information devices through intelligent, secure,
and reliable networks.

Our vision—the Internet
The Internet is the single most important phenomenon
to occur in information technology since the microprocessor, and ultimately it may be the biggest IT
revolution ever. At Cisco, we see the Internet as a
tremendously significant and empowering technology
development that will greatly affect the way people
do business, learn, and communicate. We are ready
and able to turn this promise into reality.

How do you use the positioning statement? It
should be used anywhere and everywhere that a succinct statement of Cisco’s business is required. This
includes presentations, collateral, sales proposals,
trade show booths, and so forth. It should lead off
your other presentations and be the foundation to
which all communicators return.

Our boilerplate standards
Our company boilerplate is as follows: Cisco Systems,
Inc. (Nasdaq: CSCO) is the worldwide leader in networking for the Internet. News and information are
available at www.cisco.com.
The standard description for our Cisco IOS
software is as follows: Cisco IOS™ software is a
platform that delivers network services and enables
networked applications.
We must be consistent in describing Cisco IOS
software as a platform, not a product, and as an enabler
of network services and networked applications. It
is not necessary to spell out “Internetwork Operating
System”; in fact, we request that you don’t spell it
out. Also note that as with any trademarked terms,
that you must use Cisco IOS as a modifier — such as
Cisco IOS software platform or Cisco IOS network
services. Never use just “IOS” or “the IOS”
.
Please help us be consistent in our messaging.

C i s c o Voice and Tone

An approachable, straightforward, and confident tone best describes the personality

you achieve this goal:

• Write in a direct, conversational style.
• Tailor your words to the intended audience.
• Use crisp, active sentences to give more life to the
written word; avoid using passive voice.
• Don’t overuse acronyms.
• Use short, simple words rather than large, cumbersome ones.
• Use the second person rather than the third person,
whenever possible.
• Use a minimum amount of jargon and colloquialisms
to make your writing “world ready” and to ensure
ease of use and translation by other countries.
In summary, write simple and direct prose, stressing
our corporate attributes—an open-minded approach
to technology and networking expertise—in an
approachable manner.
In all cases, be sure you use the correct legal name
for Cisco Systems, Inc. for your region or country,
according to the Cisco Systems Corporate Style Guide.
Use “Cisco Systems” when the company is first
mentioned in the text, followed by “Cisco” in subsequent references.
The Cisco Systems Corporate Style Guide contains two sections that are helpful to those creating
marketing collateral. These sections are entitled “Style
Guidelines” and “Word Usage. The Corporate Style
”
Guide is available on CEC at wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/

T h e C i s c o Corporate Tag Line

Cisco believes that the Internet is fundamentally changing the way people work, live, play,

sm
branding efforts, with a new corporate tag line, “Empowering the Internet Generation . ”

Cisco’s new tag line conveys two key concepts:

Associates Cisco with the Internet
People within the networking industry know Cisco.
But many more people are familiar with the Internet
and Internet-enabled applications. We need to make
more people aware of Cisco’s key role with the Internet
as a provider of backbone and access products and
of Web site tools and Internet appliances.
In addition, we want people to realize that Cisco
products and services make Internet-enabled applications possible, and to appreciate that the Internet
can change the way they work, live, play, and learn.
Cisco itself is the world’s foremost example of a
company using the Internet for competitive advantage.

Emphasizes the importance of the
Internet Generation
Our vision is that the Internet will have as profound
an effect on people and society as the Industrial
Revolution did in the 19th century. We are living in
the Internet Generation and are extending it to our
children and grandchildren. The Internet Generation
encompasses people, companies, and countries.
Those who understand the power of the Internet and
networked applications will, in our view, be the
long-term winners. So companies and countries—in
addition to people—have to see themselves as part
of the “Internet Generation.”

The Internet and networked applications will fundamentally change the way people work,
live, play, and learn. We are living in the Internet Generation, which is bringing changes as
great as those created by the Industrial Age (but at a much faster pace).
Shape the future of global networking by creating unprecedented opportunities
and value for our customers, employees, investors, and partners.

C i s c o Corporate Tag Line Staging

Cisco Systems wants to use its new corporate tag line, “Empowering the Internet

to be used both with the logo and by itself, providing maximum flexibility in our
efforts to use it frequently.

The Cisco Systems tag line is created using the Sabon
font. When incorporating the tag line with the company
logo, you must adhere to all other guidelines for use
of the Cisco Systems logo. Please follow the staging
indicated below:

Trademarks
The Cisco Systems logo is a registered trademark
and always appears with a ®. When using the logo
with the corporate tag line, “Empowering the
Internet Generation,” use an SM designation after
the tag line to indicate that it is a service mark.

T h e Cisco Systems Logo

The Cisco Systems logo is our signature to the world and must not be compromised.

The Cisco Systems logo is composed of the Univers
font logotype appearing above the boxed bridge,
as illustrated at the right. This arrangement is the
only version of the logo that can be used and is
Cisco’s legal corporate signature.
The preferred usage is two-color, using PMS 3035
(deep blue) for the boxed bridge and PMS 187 (red)
for the logotype or the equivalent CMYK (process
match) colors as noted on this page. In one-color
printing, the logo can be either black, PMS 3035, or
Cool Gray 2. The vertical bridge “tines” must always
be the color of the paper you are printing on.
When reversing or knocking out the logo, the
boxed bridge element and the words “Cisco Systems”
will be the color of the paper the logo is being printed
on, and the bridge tines will be the color that surrounds
the logo as shown on the next page.
To ensure enough contrast for viewing the logo,
do not use it on a patterned background or on
one that is too light or too dark. Do not combine the
Cisco Systems logo with any other logo or graphic
element. Do not alter the Cisco logo in any manner
including the typeface, proportions, colors, elements,
or location of any of the text in relation to the boxed
bridge element. Do not animate, morph, or otherwise
distort its perspective or two-dimensional appearance.

Cisco Systems licenses the use of specially designed marks to its resellers a n d c e rt i f i e d

Cisco Systems signature with an additional program descriptor underneath the bridge as
illustrated on this page.

For certified partners of Cisco products and services,
marks have been created for the following certifications: Partner, Partner—Gold Certified, Partner—
Silver Certified, and Partner—Premier Certified. To
qualify for using these marks, certified partners must
meet the criteria established for their certification
levels. They may only use marks for which they have
achieved certification.
Cisco’s Authorized Distributor and Reseller
program marks are for use by distributors who resell
Cisco products to Cisco’s reseller and certified partners.
In one-color printing, these marks can be either
black or PMS 3035 (deep blue). In multicolor printing,
the Cisco Systems logotype must appear in PMS 187
(deep red) with the boxed bridge in PMS 3035 (deep
blue), the vertical bridge tines the color of the paper
you are printing on, and the certification descriptor

The marks may also print reversed out of a dark
background. When reversing or knocking out the
marks, the boxed bridge element, the words Cisco
Systems, and the partner and certification level type
are the color of the paper a mark is being printed
on, and the bridge tines are the color that surrounds
the logo.
To ensure enough contrast for viewing a mark,
do not use it on a patterned background or on one
that is too dark or light. Do not combine the Cisco
Systems partner or program marks with any other
logo or graphic element. Do not alter the Cisco logo
in any manner including the typeface, proportions,
colors, elements, or location of any of the text in relation to the boxed bridge element. Do not animate,

C i sc o NetWorks Mark

The Cisco NetWorks ingredient mark is designed for the exclusive use of key partners

connectivity in the network and interoperability with Cisco-designated systems.

The Cisco NetWorks mark is composed of the Univers
font logotype and the boxed arrow element, as
shown at the right. Please use the camera-ready or
soft-copy art provided by Cisco Systems.
In one-color printing, the Cisco NetWorks mark
can be used in black, PMS 3035 (deep blue), PMS
187 (deep red), or PMS Cool Gray 2. The arrowhead
is the same color as the background color the mark
appears on. In two-color printing, the boxed arrow
element (box and arrowtail) appears in PMS 3035
(deep blue) and the text “Cisco NetWorks” in PMS
187 (deep red). The arrowhead is the same color as
the background color the mark appears on.
When reversing or knocking out the mark, the box,
arrowtail, and logotype are all the color of the paper
the mark is being printed on, and the arrowhead is the
same color that surrounds the mark.
To ensure adequate contrast for viewing the mark,
do not use it with a patterned background or one
that is too light or too dark for it to read well. Do
not alter the Cisco NetWorks mark in any manner
including the typeface, proportions, colors, elements,
or location of any of the text in relation to the boxed
arrow element. You may not animate, morph, or
otherwise distort its perspective or two-dimensional
appearance. Do not combine the Cisco NetWorks
mark with any other logo or graphic element.

Tra d e mark P olicy

Cisco’s trademarks are valuable assets that must be selected and used carefully. Please

program, and service names.

Cisco defines a trademark as a word (for example,
Cisco), a design (such as the Cisco bridge logo), a tag
line (“Empowering the Internet Generation”)—or any
combination of these elements adopted by Cisco
Systems to identify the company and its products and
to distinguish it from competitors.
Trademarks should be used as adjectives, not
nouns (for example, Cisco IOS software, not Cisco
IOS). If they are used as nouns, they may become
generic and no longer protectable (for example,
“aspirin, and “Kleenex”).
”

Registration and Trademarks
Cisco owns trademark rights to the Cisco Systems
name and logo, the Cisco IOS Technologies name
and logo, the Cisco Powered Network logo, and the
Cisco NetWorks logo. We own service marks on the
tag lines “Empowering the Internet Generation” and
“Changing the way we work, live, play, and learn.
”
In addition, we own exclusive rights to a number of
product family and product names as indicated on
the next page. Our rights are protected and strengthened when our trademarks are used properly.
Cisco’s naming strategy emphasizes Cisco as our
corporate brand and employs descriptive terminology
for product, program, and service names. Departments
that have new products, programs, or services should
contact Central Naming Service at naming@cisco.com
to begin the naming process.

Colors, like typefaces, lead to easy recognition when used consistently. The Cisco Systems

from packaging to printed materials.

The logo colors, PMS 187 and PMS 3035, are the
primary colors in the Cisco palette. These colors are
rich and easily readable in a variety of media.
PMS Cool Gray 2 and PMS 124 provide a
complement to the logo colors and can be used for
all secondary type treatments. Black is also part of
the palette.
We’ve also selected a single color for each line of
business along with the Cisco corporate palette. As
additional vertical industries or applications are created,
we will develop color standards for each area. Staying
with these color standards will produce an overall look
that says “Cisco Systems” throughout the world.

customers to readily recognize materials from Cisco Systems.

Univers, Univers Condensed, and Sabon are Cisco’s
corporate fonts. Univers and Univers Condensed are
sans serif fonts with a classic look that work well
electronically, scale easily, and should be used as headline fonts. Sabon is a simple, elegant serif font that
provides a good contrast to Univers and is used for
body copy. Do not use Sabon SC Oldstyle numbers.
Both fonts are readily available from Adobe in PC and
Mac formats. The Mac and PC fonts can be located
on our internal web site at wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/

shown in the illustrations are created so as not to depict particular races or cultures,
and the environments are universal, ranging from small offices to large corporate
enterprises. The perspectives are dynamic, extreme, and powerful, displaying as much
dimension and interest as possible. Ample white space is used to enhance the overall
effect of the illustrations.

The illustration system is based on large, “billboard”
designs that depict a networking environment specific
to a market solution. Each billboard is then sectioned
into smaller illustrations or “vignettes” to be used
throughout the promotional materials. Spot illustrations, or portions of vignettes, can also be used. The
billboard illustrations typically are not used independently except in large trade show booth applications.
Graphic patterns and elements are also available
to create additional interest and integrate with the
illustrations.
The illustration library can be viewed within the
Cisco Corporate Identity Web site at wwwin.cisco.com/
Mkt/corpid/resource.html.

Billboard

A billboard is a complete, actionoriented illustration for a particular
product, initiative, or market. Billboards
contain multiple metaphors representing parts of a given solution. Each is
created as one complex composition
and is not meant to be used as a
whole. Any area may be cropped out
to use as a basis for a vignette. New
billboards can be requested through
Corporate Identity Design Services.

Note that some illustrations have been developed
specifically for certain applications or organizations. The
Corporate Identity archivist can deliver illustrations
to you on removable media. In addition, Corporate
Identity Design Services can create custom illustrations
upon request.
Please remember to use the color palette consistently by selecting the correct spot colors by market
solution or vertical industry that integrate with
the illustration. All illustrations can be reproduced as
duotones per specifications outlined later in this guide.

Spot Illustration
Spot illustrations are detailed portions

approximately 1 to 11⁄ 4" in diameter.
Spots may be selected from vignettes
used in the project, or they may be
selected from any of the open artwork
vignettes or billboards.

Graphic Element
Graphic elements are used to embellish
the concept of a product, solution,
or market and are nonspecific. They
should accent but never overpower
the vignette. They consist of EPS files
of simple shapes and should be
screened to 3 percent black. New
graphic elements may be requested
through Corporate Identity Design
Services at any time.

P h o t ograp hy S tyle and Lib r ar y

Cisco’s photography system uses traditional photography coupled with digital processes

the artistry of the product’s design. Camera angle, positioning, and lighting combine to
achieve the final effect.

Standard Product Photography
All Cisco products are photographed in color from
three standard angles: at three-quarter angle to the
front of the unit, straight on to the front panel, and
straight on to the back panel. It is typical to show a
portion of the top of the product to better indicate
the shape and depth. Products taller than eye level,
however, do not necessarily show the top.

Cisco product photography is currently available in
low-resolution electronic files, 2"x 3" (50 mm x
75 mm) at 150 dpi; as hard-copy photographs, 4"x 5"
(101 mm x 127 mm) transparencies; and as 35-mm
slides. Request product photography through the
Corporate Identity archivist. Low-resolution scans
can be delivered via e-mail (electronic files). Hard
copy is delivered via express mail. Turnaround time
is 72 hours plus shipping time.
Images are available either on a CD or via the
internal web. The CDs contain product images in
three formats: low-resolution GIF for the Web,
medium-resolution JPG for insertion into applications
like PowerPoint, and high-resolution EPS for print.

To view a product photo on our web site, go to:
wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/corpid/resource.html. To
order CDs, go to Cisco MarketPlace. Log into CCO
at www.cisco.com/. Select “Products and Ordering,”
then go to Cisco MarketPlace, Order for the company,
Brochures and Documentation Center, Brocdrom.

Photography for Collateral
(Level 1 Collateral)
Level 1 collateral uses Cisco standard photography
that has been digitally manipulated. Standard photography shot at a three-quarter view is scanned in
at high resolution, creating a digital file. The product
image is outlined using Adobe Photoshop, then
dropped out of the existing background and placed
on a new background, typically created from a piece
of a vignette that has been enlarged and lightened.
The area of the background image that is under
and in front of the product is skewed to create a
“surface” effect that the product appears to be
sitting on. Finally, a drop shadow of the product
is created manually.
These photographs are not generally available,
but may be requested for approved usage through
Corporate Identity.

For Level 2 collateral, the standard photography is
brought into Photoshop and a duotone is created
using the black and PMS color of that piece. Curves
for the duotone are typically straight lines; 0-100 for
the black plate, 0-40 for the PMS color plate. The
edge vignettes, rather than having a hard edge.

Photography for Public Relations
The style of photography used in publications
changes more frequently than standard photography
because of the changing needs of publications and
publishers. It is, therefore, an evolving style. For
details about the current style of PR photography,
please contact the Corporate Identity archivist.

Photography for Presentations
and the Web
Standard photography is available at low resolution
for presentations and the Web. Photography, may be
requested through the Corporate Identity archivist.

How to Schedule a Photo Shoot
Product photography can be initiated by contacting
the Marketing Program Manager, Photography in
Cisco Corporate Identity. The manager will ask
you to fill out a Photo Shoot Request form and a
Shot List and will schedule time with an outside
photo studio. Please allow a lead time of at least
seven to ten working days for the photo shoot.
There may be certain exceptions depending on
timing, location, and availability.

Icons

T h e Cisco Icon Library

Icons for designing network diagrams used in collateral, white papers, data sheets,

a wide selection of icons to represent everything from routers and switches to concepts
such as telecommuting and data transfer.

The library contains grayscale versions of each icon
that can be translated into color, single color, or
black and white.
For any four-color printing, the spot color designated for the market solution can be used as well as
colors from the corporate palette. When working with
four-color printing, be sure you convert to CMYK
before going to print.
Single-color icons are preferred in two-color work,
while grayscale is used in black and white materials
only. The black and white icons are used primarily in
documentation and on the web.
All icons are Adobe Illustrator EPS files. The
library also contains GIF file icons for PC and many
UNIX applications.

• Icons should not be manipulated, resized, or redrawn
except for brackets, clouds, and FDDI rings, which
may be scaled proportionally.
• All lines connecting icons (representing serial,
Ethernet, direct communication, and so forth) should
be .4-point lines.
• Illustrated “pipes” denoting bandwidth of packets
can take on a variety of attributes to be determined
by the diagram designer.
• When using black and white icons, the connecting
line should be placed at the front of the icon to
make it appear connected. Be sure that the line does
not interfere with elements of the icon itself or with
text inside the icon.

To better establish our identity on the Internet and World Wide Web, we’ve designed

standards, there is plenty of room for creative solutions to make exciting web pages.
You should be particularly careful with color and logo treatment, because they can
change when going from print to the web.

To keep logo colors consistent and clean on the web,
please use a properly mapped GIF file. If mapped
GIF files are not used, the bridge “tines” will not be
clear, and the colors will not appear in the proper
Netscape palette.
All banners and web pages should be 504 pixels
wide for both internal and external use. The internal
web is available only to those who have access to
Cisco networks, while the external web can be accessed
by anyone with the proper equipment.

customers. It defines content guidelines for print and web sales collateral to ensure
that each document fits into the overall identity program. This system serves as a guide
for content development managers to use in driving content development and producing collateral for maximum effectiveness in each medium.

Level 1

The overall consistency of Cisco Systems collateral
materials is defined by graphic standards. It is important
to follow the templates to maintain our design integrity.
When designing or producing a brochure, fact sheet,
customer profile, or any other piece of collateral or
packaging, keep the following guidelines in mind:
• Allow for plenty of white space in your materials.

• Include sidebar elements and be sure they coincide
with the correct palette for the market solution
connected with them.

• Use a two-grid system consisting of two equal text
block columns parallel to each other.
• Be consistent and correct in your use of Cisco illustrations. Corporate Identity maintains a library
with illustrations for every market solution initiative.

Level 2

• If a template exists for your project, use it. If one is
not currently available, ask Corporate Identity to provide guidance so your project maintains consistency.

Packaging:

Product Package

Level 2 Sales Collateral

The sales collateral system has three levels. Level 1
collateral is targeted at high-level decision makers and
is primarily nontechnical. Level 2 is aimed at technical
decision makers and contains a greater degree of
technical content. The third level is for our direct and
indirect sales force and employees to communicate
new or changed information about Cisco’s products,
programs, solutions, or services. Collateral is primarily
accessed electronically via Cisco’s web site and the
Sales Tools CD-ROM. You can review the entire collateral system at wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/ccon/cd/process/
1/collateral_system.pdf.

I m p o r t a n t M i s c e l l a n y for Designers

This information is critical for following the standards contained in this guide and

General

Figure and Table Titles

For web, fax, or black and white transmissions, delete
all screen tints. All network diagrams and screen shots
that are in grayscale or color must be created in solid
black and white (no screens).
Vignettes should only be reduced from their original
sizes, not enlarged, or you will lose resolution.

Figure Title is used for any diagram, screen, or product
shot. Table Title is used for tables or charts. Both are
Univers Condensed Light, 7.5/9, flush left. Type aligns
with either the column or the illustration. Top rule
is .25 point and aligns with columns; rule bleeds off
page or butts into gutter. Side rule is 1 point; length
varies with length of text. Text is positioned 6 points
in from rules and can print black or color; it should
remain consistent throughout the document. (Different
titles are necessary for FrameMaker docs.)

Comping Notes
For Fierys, bump up screen tints from 3 percent to
17 or 20 percent.

SubTitle and Emphasis Medium Heads
These head styles are used throughout the collateral
system. SubTitle (Univers Condensed Bold) is used
for main points. The Emphasis Medium (Sabon Italic)
heads can either precede or follow.

Creating Graphics
Duotones: Use Photoshop curves PMS 0 = 0 and
100% = 40.6%. (These figures may have to be slightly
adjusted; however, the overall Duotone look is almost
black and white. The PMS should be subtle.) If using
a full-color original, you may have to adjust brightness and contrast in areas.
To feather edges of four-color graphics in
Photoshop, select area to fade out with marquis.
Under “Select” in the menu bar, choose “Feather.
”
Set 30 to 40 pixels. Under “Select” in the menu bar,
choose “Inverse,” make foreground color “White,”
then press Option/delete (you may need to press
Option/delete more than once for a clean fadeout).

Marketing Icons
Available from Corporate Identity or wwwin.cisco.
com/Mkt/corpid/icons.html. Do not resize icons (only
clouds; keep consistent rule weight). Icons are grayscale
or PMS tints. Rules are .4 point. Type is Univers
Condensed Light, 7/8, upper- and lowercase. Heads
are Univers Condensed Bold, 7/8, upper- and lowercase.

Spot Color, Four-Color Process,
and SuperBlack
When on press, match coated PMS for coated stocks
and uncoated PMS for uncoated stocks.

Always use SuperBlack, 40C, 100K, on solid black
areas and thick rules (4 point and 8 point) whenever
printing four-color process. This makes a richer,
darker black.

Numbers
Do not use Sabon SC numbers (oldstyle).

Cisco and the Environment

Cisco is committed to the environment and to the
preservation of our natural resources. We encourage
you to design products that can be reused by selecting
recycled and recyclable materials. Reduce ink usage
through less color coverage and thinner applications.
Consider using organic, pigment-based inks and avoid
colors with toxic metals. Don’t use plastic coatings,
foil stamping, plastic windows for envelopes, or synthetic glues and adhesives. When using recycled paper,
use the “Recycled” symbols to promote recycling.

Another example of the need to integrate the security
system with the enterprise network involves offering electronic commerce services. If an institution wants to offer
electronic commerce services, it will need to act as a certifying
authority for its customers. (In The Registry market survey

via a password and is authorized to access a few specific
applications, such as risk management tools, between the hours

every network user and mapping their identity, location,
and the time-of-day access to the Security Policy. The key to
centralized identity and security policy management is the
combination of all key authentication mechanisms (for
example SecureID, DES Gold Cards, or MS Login) and their
interworking with one common identity repository. To

When co-branding a Cisco product with another
company’s brand, the Cisco product must retain its
native look, feel, and badging. The co-branded vendor’s
logo should appear at the right of Cisco’s logo, with
a minimum distance between the logos of .5x-height

C i s c o Reseller and Certified Partner Graphics—Introduction

Cisco’s goal is to establish a strong and consistent presence in the channel. To reinforce

and certified partners worldwide. This design builds on Cisco’s corporate identity and is
intended to be used for channel communications only.
Adhering to these guidelines will ensure that all brochures,
flyers, kits, and other reseller and certified partner collateral
will have consistent graphic treatment, regardless of the
business unit or geography where they were created.
For examples of reseller and certified partner designs
you can leverage for your own communications, see
the enclosed CDs. Also refer to the following section—
“Important Information for Designers of Reseller and
Certified Partner Collateral and Kits”—and see the included layout examples.
For further questions, contact Cisco Corporate Identity.

I m p o r t a n t I n f o r m a t i o n for Designers of Reseller and Certified Partner
Collateral and Kits

The Reseller and Certified Partner look and feel is based on a distinct grid system. This
system consists of sections of four-color and duotone illustrations, sweeps of solid color,

and layering with illustrations that are darkened, lightened, or duotoned based on
the color or tint overlapping them. The look is not a patchwork design where random
blocks in the grid are selected and tinted here and there. Rather, the illustration must give
the feeling of being “interrupted” by a band of color that results in a change in style to the
illustration, such as a duotone or a darkened or lightened area.

The Grid
The Reseller and Certified Partner look divides the
page into a 6 x 6-unit grid (36 rectangular units).
For extremely horizontal layouts (for example,
posters or kits), use a grid that is 6 units wide and
3 units high. The black Cisco bar running up the
left side is optional. If incorporated, the bar should
be 3/4" wide and run the length of the page on the
left edge, bleeding off. The bar should be super black
without text. The 6 x 6-unit grid should begin on
the inside edge of the black bar.
Brochure Cover
The grid is created in Illustrator and brought in as a
path into Photoshop.
Editorial Spread
The grid can be created in Quark or brought in from
Illustrator as an EPS file.

The Illustrations
Select a section from a billboard or vignette illustration and convert the section to a duotone. (Please see
specs for duotone treatment and curves. Duotones
should be black plus PMS 124, 3035, 187, or cool
gray or other Market Solution color; try to use the
corporate palette.) Then, select an area of the illustration to emphasize. This emphasized area will be
four-color. For example, a duotone illustration of
people shaking hands could present the hands in
four-color, emphasizing partnership.
Package Design
The illustration can be used over the entire cover
and grayed out (see specs) with only key areas in
duotones.
Brochure Cover
The illustration can run over the entire page.

Editorial Spread
The illustration is reserved for corners and should
not have copy running over it. Blocks of solid and
tinted color should surround the illustration. The
remainder of the page should be various percentages
of black (3, 5, or 7 percent) with no cyan, magenta,
or yellow in the mix (K only).

Color
Bands or blocks of color (corporate palette) should
be strategically placed throughout the layout. Colors
should have overlays of light and dark percentages of
black in some areas (without CMY) to create a layered look.

The Letterform
Brochure Cover
A large letterform is placed over the layout and tinted
lightly (see specs). Some edges of the letterform can
run behind parts of an illustration if it is critical for
that section of the illustration to be visible. Otherwise,
90 percent of the letterform should be on the topmost layer. A 3-point white line should surround
the letter (except where an illustration overlaps), and
the letter should base-align with the bottom edge of
the spread. Letterforms should stand for a particular
corporate group, such as:
R = Reseller
C = Channels
T = Training
M = Sales and Marketing
S = Service and Support
The letterform should be at least 95 percent of the
height of the page.

The sample on this page shows a full-color use of the
Design Clinic graphic and is composed of PMS 124
(yellow), PMS 187 (red), PMS 3035 (deep teal), and
black. The samples shown would accurately scale
to a final banner size of 30 x 94 inches.
When possible, please specify a banner material
color that matches the background color (in this case
PMS 187 on this page, and PMS 124 on the next page).
The overprinted colors should always be reproduced
at 100% for a richer, more interesting look.

When creating banners for an event that includes
a Cisco Design Clinic, be sure to include the corporate
logo. The preferred positioning is bottom center, as
shown in these samples. An authorized single-color
usage of black is the most striking in this application.
Please do not change the position or coloring of the
corporate mark.
When signage and banners are produced for any
event, be sure to use the fonts and sizes as specified
here to spell out the event, and not use any other
logo in place of the Cisco logo. The use of another
logo dilutes the distinctive and simple appeal of the
Cisco Design Clinic artwork.

C i sc o Sem inar S eries

The Cisco Seminar Series program ensures consistency for all seminars delivered by

programs. Cisco and partner marcom managers help build equity in the Cisco Seminar
Series by using the program and its associated components in all seminars, resulting in
increased loyalty and attendance.

The seminar program and materials are closely managed
by Cisco seminar managers around the world. Before
conducting a seminar or using Cisco Seminar Series
materials, please consult with your local seminar
manager or the seminar team at corporate.
Be sure to follow the standard logo, typography,
color palette, and all other relevant specifications
included in this guide to maintain our overall identity.
The key requirements for a seminar to be considered part of the Cisco Seminar Series are as follows:
• The seminar objectives, message, content, and schedule
are clear and complementary to other seminars in
the Cisco Seminar Series program. The content
should either originate from Cisco or be reviewed
by a Cisco seminar manager.
• Speakers should be knowledgeable concerning the
seminar content and capable of speaking effectively
in front of large audiences. Most speakers are from
Cisco or are CCIE certified, have experience addressing
large groups, or have taken effective speaking courses.
• For competent coordination, registration, and logistical
support, use Cisco’s Seminar Guide or Cisco’s preferred list of vendors to execute the program.

The following elements have been developed for use
in the Cisco Seminar Series program:
• Seminar invitation template
• Seminar Web registration system at
www.cisco.com/seminars
• Attendee presentation folder, presentation cover,
and pen
• Onsite podium, directional, and registration signs
• PowerPoint and Director presentation background
• Attendee badges
• Speaker and host badge ribbons
• Attendee evaluation forms
• Stationery, envelopes, and fax confirmation forms
For more information, please contact your local seminar
manager or visit the web site at wwwin.cisco.com/mkt/sem.

To ensure consistency with the look and tone of
Cisco’s advertising, we request that you follow
these guidelines.
Brand Attributes
All existing and future Cisco advertising must
communicate the following brand attributes and
characteristics:
Open Minded
Accepting and developing technologies that solve our
customers’ problems
Expert
The worldwide leader in networking for the Internet
Positively Disarming
Honest, straightforward communication with others

Logo Placement
The Cisco logo is set apart from other elements
of the ad, separated by white space in order to
provide quick identification of the Cisco brand. For
Corporate, Solutions, and Channel advertising placed
by Cisco Systems, the logo appears in the upper left
or lower right corners of the ad, separate from the
other elements.
Cisco Powered Network/Solutions Ads

The Cisco Systems logo and tag line are placed in the
lower right-hand corner of the ad with the tag line.
For Cisco Powered Network ads, the Cisco Powered
Network logo is featured in the upper left-hand corner.

Here’s an example of a typical single-page ad showing the relative sizes of the
different parts being discussed.

Approachable
Talking in terms that our customers understand—
conversationally and not offensively

Print Advertising
Page Layout
To maximize communication of the Cisco brand,
a look and feel has been developed that should be
consistent across all print advertising. This is not a
template, but a guideline to be followed to maintain
consistency in all advertising efforts.
The layout of Cisco print ads has a modular
design. Each element of an ad (visual, headline,
body copy) is contained within a roughly square,
rectangular space. Headlines are reversed out of a
darker background.

If the answer is Cisco, you
know your network service
provider is supported by the
products and technology
that brought the Internet to
business. In fact, the Internet as
we know it today is built on
Cisco equipment.
Cisco Powered Network
service providers are equipped
to make your network work
for you. Whether it’s Internet
access, ATM, frame relay or
other data services, you will

the quality it can depend on.
Look for the Cisco

participating network service
providers. Either way, you
will know your provider is
committed to giving your
business the most in reliable,
secure and innovative service.
And you will know it’s powered
by Cisco – the company that
makes the world’s networks
work for business.

Channel Reseller/Certified Partner and Distributor Solution Ads

The Channel Reseller/Certified Partner and Distributor
ads are built on a variety of preapproved templates.
Cisco’s Authorized Distributor logo is featured alone
in the upper left-hand corner of the ad, within a horizontal strip of white space. Because distributor and
certified partner logos are frequently included, these
logos are placed along the bottom half of the ad,
providing separation between the Cisco Systems logo
and those of our channel partners.

Visuals
The dominant visual must follow Cisco’s brand and
positioning attributes and also work effectively with
the headline and body copy. Please pay close attention to this critical aspect of your ad. Inset shots may
be used in addition to the main visual.
Logo and Tag Line
Please follow the standards established by Corporate
Identity as described in this standards guide.
Typography
Cisco has selected Univers and Univers Condensed
for headlines and Sabon for body copy. Univers and
Univers Condensed are classic-looking sans serif
fonts that work well electronically, scale easily, and
should be used as headline fonts. Sabon is a simple,
elegant serif font that provides good contrast to the
Univers or Univers Condensed headline.
The Univers headline font may vary in point size,
but must be at least twice the size of the body copy,
or at a minimum, 18 point.
The Sabon body copy should be loosely ragged
rather than tightly packed, making it more inviting
and easier to read. Body copy must not be smaller
than 10 point.

We can, however, greatly influence how we are positioned by communicating to our external audiences in a clear and consistent way. Cisco’s positioning statement is as follows: Cisco Systems is the worldwide leader in networking for the Internet. What does this mean? Our positioning statement has three primary elements: Our position — the worldwide leader Our business — networking Our vision— the Internet Our position—the worldwide leader By almost any measure, Cisco is the worldwide leader in its field. It is the largest or best in terms of revenue, profitability, market capitalization, market share, breadth of products, technology, customer base, customer satisfaction, service/support, field sales, expertise, and so forth. But a leader isn’t just the biggest. A leader views and responds to industry issues, customer concerns, and technology opportunities with greater responsibility and greater credibility. A leader has higher responsibilities and greater stature. Our business—networking So, what are we the leader in? It’s networking—giving people access to the information they need by connecting information devices through intelligent, secure, and reliable networks. Our vision—the Internet The Internet is the single most important phenomenon to occur in information technology since the microprocessor, and ultimately it may be the biggest IT revolution ever. At Cisco, we see the Internet as a tremendously significant and empowering technology development that will greatly affect the way people do business, learn, and communicate. We are ready and able to turn this promise into reality. How do you use the positioning statement? It should be used anywhere and everywhere that a succinct statement of Cisco’s business is required. This includes presentations, collateral, sales proposals, trade show booths, and so forth. It should lead off your other presentations and be the foundation to which all communicators return. Our boilerplate standards Our company boilerplate is as follows: Cisco Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CSCO) is the worldwide leader in networking for the Internet. News and information are available at www.cisco.com. The standard description for our Cisco IOS software is as follows: Cisco IOS™ software is a platform that delivers network services and enables networked applications. We must be consistent in describing Cisco IOS software as a platform, not a product, and as an enabler of network services and networked applications. It is not necessary to spell out “Internetwork Operating System”; in fact, we request that you don’t spell it out. Also note that as with any trademarked terms, that you must use Cisco IOS as a modifier — such as Cisco IOS software platform or Cisco IOS network services. Never use just “IOS” or “the IOS” . Please help us be consistent in our messaging. TO DOWNLOADS have goals for positioning ourselves, ultimately our position is what others think and GO!

    73.0946 Intro 7/2/98 2:16PM Page 3 C i s c o Voice and Tone An approachable, straightforward, and confident tone best describes the personality you achieve this goal: • Write in a direct, conversational style. • Tailor your words to the intended audience. • Use crisp, active sentences to give more life to the written word; avoid using passive voice. • Don’t overuse acronyms. • Use short, simple words rather than large, cumbersome ones. • Use the second person rather than the third person, whenever possible. • Use a minimum amount of jargon and colloquialisms to make your writing “world ready” and to ensure ease of use and translation by other countries. In summary, write simple and direct prose, stressing our corporate attributes—an open-minded approach to technology and networking expertise—in an approachable manner. In all cases, be sure you use the correct legal name for Cisco Systems, Inc. for your region or country, according to the Cisco Systems Corporate Style Guide. Use “Cisco Systems” when the company is first mentioned in the text, followed by “Cisco” in subsequent references. The Cisco Systems Corporate Style Guide contains two sections that are helpful to those creating marketing collateral. These sections are entitled “Style Guidelines” and “Word Usage.

But many more people are familiar with the Internet and Internet-enabled applications. We need to make more people aware of Cisco’s key role with the Internet as a provider of backbone and access products and of Web site tools and Internet appliances. In addition, we want people to realize that Cisco products and services make Internet-enabled applications possible, and to appreciate that the Internet can change the way they work, live, play, and learn. Cisco itself is the world’s foremost example of a company using the Internet for competitive advantage. Emphasizes the importance of the Internet Generation Our vision is that the Internet will have as profound an effect on people and society as the Industrial Revolution did in the 19th century. We are living in the Internet Generation and are extending it to our children and grandchildren. The Internet Generation encompasses people, companies, and countries. Those who understand the power of the Internet and networked applications will, in our view, be the long-term winners. So companies and countries—in addition to people—have to see themselves as part of the “Internet Generation.” The Internet and networked applications will fundamentally change the way people work, live, play, and learn. We are living in the Internet Generation, which is bringing changes as great as those created by the Industrial Age (but at a much faster pace).

The perspectives are dynamic, extreme, and powerful, displaying as much dimension and interest as possible. Ample white space is used to enhance the overall effect of the illustrations. The illustration system is based on large, “billboard” designs that depict a networking environment specific to a market solution. Each billboard is then sectioned into smaller illustrations or “vignettes” to be used throughout the promotional materials. Spot illustrations, or portions of vignettes, can also be used. The billboard illustrations typically are not used independently except in large trade show booth applications. Graphic patterns and elements are also available to create additional interest and integrate with the illustrations. The illustration library can be viewed within the Cisco Corporate Identity Web site at wwwin.cisco.com/ Mkt/corpid/resource.html. Billboard A billboard is a complete, actionoriented illustration for a particular product, initiative, or market. Billboards contain multiple metaphors representing parts of a given solution. Each is created as one complex composition and is not meant to be used as a whole. Any area may be cropped out to use as a basis for a vignette. New billboards can be requested through Corporate Identity Design Services. Note that some illustrations have been developed specifically for certain applications or organizations. The Corporate Identity archivist can deliver illustrations to you on removable media. In addition, Corporate Identity Design Services can create custom illustrations upon request. Please remember to use the color palette consistently by selecting the correct spot colors by market solution or vertical industry that integrate with the illustration. All illustrations can be reproduced as duotones per specifications outlined later in this guide. TO DOWNLOADS “world ready”—that is, easily used by all the geographic regions we serve.

    73.0946 Graphic System 7/2/982:58 PM Page 12 P h o t ograp hy S tyle and Lib r ar y Cisco’s photography system uses traditional photography coupled with digital processes the artistry of the product’s design. Camera angle, positioning, and lighting combine to achieve the final effect. Standard Product Photography All Cisco products are photographed in color from three standard angles: at three-quarter angle to the front of the unit, straight on to the front panel, and straight on to the back panel. It is typical to show a portion of the top of the product to better indicate the shape and depth. Products taller than eye level, however, do not necessarily show the top. Cisco product photography is currently available in low-resolution electronic files, 2"x 3" (50 mm x 75 mm) at 150 dpi; as hard-copy photographs, 4"x 5" (101 mm x 127 mm) transparencies; and as 35-mm slides. Request product photography through the Corporate Identity archivist. Low-resolution scans can be delivered via e-mail (electronic files). Hard copy is delivered via express mail. Turnaround time is 72 hours plus shipping time. Images are available either on a CD or via the internal web. The CDs contain product images in three formats: low-resolution GIF for the Web, medium-resolution JPG for insertion into applications like PowerPoint, and high-resolution EPS for print. To view a product photo on our web site, go to: wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/corpid/resource.html. To order CDs, go to Cisco MarketPlace. Log into CCO at www.cisco.com/. Select “Products and Ordering,” then go to Cisco MarketPlace, Order for the company, Brochures and Documentation Center, Brocdrom. Photography for Collateral (Level 1 Collateral) Level 1 collateral uses Cisco standard photography that has been digitally manipulated. Standard photography shot at a three-quarter view is scanned in at high resolution, creating a digital file. The product image is outlined using Adobe Photoshop, then dropped out of the existing background and placed on a new background, typically created from a piece of a vignette that has been enlarged and lightened. The area of the background image that is under and in front of the product is skewed to create a “surface” effect that the product appears to be sitting on. Finally, a drop shadow of the product is created manually. These photographs are not generally available, but may be requested for approved usage through Corporate Identity.

Curves for the duotone are typically straight lines; 0-100 for the black plate, 0-40 for the PMS color plate. The edge vignettes, rather than having a hard edge. TO DOWNLOADS Photography for Collateral (Level 2 Collateral) GO! Photography for Public Relations The style of photography used in publications changes more frequently than standard photography because of the changing needs of publications and publishers. It is, therefore, an evolving style. For details about the current style of PR photography, please contact the Corporate Identity archivist. Photography for Presentations and the Web Standard photography is available at low resolution for presentations and the Web. Photography, may be requested through the Corporate Identity archivist. How to Schedule a Photo Shoot Product photography can be initiated by contacting the Marketing Program Manager, Photography in Cisco Corporate Identity. The manager will ask you to fill out a Photo Shoot Request form and a Shot List and will schedule time with an outside photo studio. Please allow a lead time of at least seven to ten working days for the photo shoot. There may be certain exceptions depending on timing, location, and availability.

The library contains grayscale versions of each icon that can be translated into color, single color, or black and white. For any four-color printing, the spot color designated for the market solution can be used as well as colors from the corporate palette. When working with four-color printing, be sure you convert to CMYK before going to print. Single-color icons are preferred in two-color work, while grayscale is used in black and white materials only. The black and white icons are used primarily in documentation and on the web. All icons are Adobe Illustrator EPS files. The library also contains GIF file icons for PC and many UNIX applications. Please follow these guidelines: Color Access Server Mobile User Single Color Access Server Mobile User Manufacturer Workstation Manufacturer Workstation Manufacturer Workstation Grayscale • Icons should not be manipulated, resized, or redrawn except for brackets, clouds, and FDDI rings, which may be scaled proportionally. • All lines connecting icons (representing serial, Ethernet, direct communication, and so forth) should be .4-point lines. • Illustrated “pipes” denoting bandwidth of packets can take on a variety of attributes to be determined by the diagram designer. • When using black and white icons, the connecting line should be placed at the front of the icon to make it appear connected. Be sure that the line does not interfere with elements of the icon itself or with text inside the icon. Icons can be downloaded from wwwin.cisco.com/ Mkt/corpid/icons.html.

You should be particularly careful with color and logo treatment, because they can change when going from print to the web. To keep logo colors consistent and clean on the web, please use a properly mapped GIF file. If mapped GIF files are not used, the bridge “tines” will not be clear, and the colors will not appear in the proper Netscape palette. All banners and web pages should be 504 pixels wide for both internal and external use. The internal web is available only to those who have access to Cisco networks, while the external web can be accessed by anyone with the proper equipment. Internal web graphic guidelines are available at wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/CorpComm/Webdesign.html.

It defines content guidelines for print and web sales collateral to ensure that each document fits into the overall identity program. This system serves as a guide for content development managers to use in driving content development and producing collateral for maximum effectiveness in each medium. Level 1 The overall consistency of Cisco Systems collateral materials is defined by graphic standards. It is important to follow the templates to maintain our design integrity. When designing or producing a brochure, fact sheet, customer profile, or any other piece of collateral or packaging, keep the following guidelines in mind: • Allow for plenty of white space in your materials. Level 1 Sales Collateral Brochure with Pocket: Market Solutions Enterprise Service Provider Small and Medium Business Brochures: Business Solution Product Line Overview Program Overview Service Overview Folder: Corporate CD-ROMs: CD Package CD Sleeve CD Face • Include sidebar elements and be sure they coincide with the correct palette for the market solution connected with them. • Use a two-grid system consisting of two equal text block columns parallel to each other. • Be consistent and correct in your use of Cisco illustrations. Corporate Identity maintains a library with illustrations for every market solution initiative. Level 2 • If a template exists for your project, use it. If one is not currently available, ask Corporate Identity to provide guidance so your project maintains consistency. Packaging: Product Package Level 2 Sales Collateral The sales collateral system has three levels. Level 1 collateral is targeted at high-level decision makers and is primarily nontechnical. Level 2 is aimed at technical decision makers and contains a greater degree of technical content. The third level is for our direct and indirect sales force and employees to communicate new or changed information about Cisco’s products, programs, solutions, or services. Collateral is primarily accessed electronically via Cisco’s web site and the Sales Tools CD-ROM. You can review the entire collateral system at wwwin.cisco.com/Mkt/ccon/cd/process/ 1/collateral_system.pdf.

All network diagrams and screen shots that are in grayscale or color must be created in solid black and white (no screens). Vignettes should only be reduced from their original sizes, not enlarged, or you will lose resolution. Figure Title is used for any diagram, screen, or product shot. Table Title is used for tables or charts. Both are Univers Condensed Light, 7.5/9, flush left. Type aligns with either the column or the illustration. Top rule is .25 point and aligns with columns; rule bleeds off page or butts into gutter. Side rule is 1 point; length varies with length of text. Text is positioned 6 points in from rules and can print black or color; it should remain consistent throughout the document. (Different titles are necessary for FrameMaker docs.) Comping Notes For Fierys, bump up screen tints from 3 percent to 17 or 20 percent. SubTitle and Emphasis Medium Heads These head styles are used throughout the collateral system. SubTitle (Univers Condensed Bold) is used for main points. The Emphasis Medium (Sabon Italic) heads can either precede or follow. Creating Graphics Duotones: Use Photoshop curves PMS 0 = 0 and 100% = 40.6%. (These figures may have to be slightly adjusted; however, the overall Duotone look is almost black and white. The PMS should be subtle.) If using a full-color original, you may have to adjust brightness and contrast in areas. To feather edges of four-color graphics in Photoshop, select area to fade out with marquis. Under “Select” in the menu bar, choose “Feather. ” Set 30 to 40 pixels. Under “Select” in the menu bar, choose “Inverse,” make foreground color “White,” then press Option/delete (you may need to press Option/delete more than once for a clean fadeout). Marketing Icons Available from Corporate Identity or wwwin.cisco. com/Mkt/corpid/icons.html. Do not resize icons (only clouds; keep consistent rule weight). Icons are grayscale or PMS tints. Rules are .4 point. Type is Univers Condensed Light, 7/8, upper- and lowercase. Heads are Univers Condensed Bold, 7/8, upper- and lowercase. Spot Color, Four-Color Process, and SuperBlack When on press, match coated PMS for coated stocks and uncoated PMS for uncoated stocks. Market Solution Spot Color Four-Color Process Service Provider PMS 221 U/C 100M, 18.5Y, 34K Enterprise PMS 2593 U/C 79C, 100M Small/Medium Business PMS 568 U/C 83C, 56Y, 38K IBM PMS 660 U/C 91C, 60M, Government PMS 554 U/C 87C, 60Y, 65K Education PMS 3015 U/C 100C, 23.5M, 18.5K Corporate Palette PMS 187 U/C 91M, 72Y, 23.5K PMS 3035 U/C 100C, 8.5Y, 65K PMS 124 U/C 27.5M, 100Y, 6K PMS Cool Gray 2 11.5K Always use SuperBlack, 40C, 100K, on solid black areas and thick rules (4 point and 8 point) whenever printing four-color process.

Another example of the need to integrate the security system with the enterprise network involves offering electronic commerce services. If an institution wants to offer electronic commerce services, it will need to act as a certifying authority for its customers.

However, the majority Active audit should be handled by a system that is totally account information. Or a bank employee is authenticated via a password and is authorized to access a few specific applications, such as risk management tools, between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Identity involves authenticating every network user and mapping their identity, location, and the time-of-day access to the Security Policy. The key to centralized identity and security policy management is the combination of all key authentication mechanisms (for example SecureID, DES Gold Cards, or MS Login) and their interworking with one common identity repository.

To reinforce and certified partners worldwide. This design builds on Cisco’s corporate identity and is intended to be used for channel communications only. Adhering to these guidelines will ensure that all brochures, flyers, kits, and other reseller and certified partner collateral will have consistent graphic treatment, regardless of the business unit or geography where they were created. For examples of reseller and certified partner designs you can leverage for your own communications, see the enclosed CDs. Also refer to the following section— “Important Information for Designers of Reseller and Certified Partner Collateral and Kits”—and see the included layout examples.

    Channels for pdf1 7/6/98 10:31 AM Page 2 I m p o r t a n t I n f o r m a t i o n for Designers of Reseller and Certified Partner Collateral and Kits The Reseller and Certified Partner look and feel is based on a distinct grid system. This system consists of sections of four-color and duotone illustrations, sweeps of solid color, and layering with illustrations that are darkened, lightened, or duotoned based on the color or tint overlapping them. The look is not a patchwork design where random blocks in the grid are selected and tinted here and there. Rather, the illustration must give the feeling of being “interrupted” by a band of color that results in a change in style to the illustration, such as a duotone or a darkened or lightened area. The Grid The Reseller and Certified Partner look divides the page into a 6 x 6-unit grid (36 rectangular units). For extremely horizontal layouts (for example, posters or kits), use a grid that is 6 units wide and 3 units high. The black Cisco bar running up the left side is optional. If incorporated, the bar should be 3/4" wide and run the length of the page on the left edge, bleeding off. The bar should be super black without text. The 6 x 6-unit grid should begin on the inside edge of the black bar. Brochure Cover The grid is created in Illustrator and brought in as a path into Photoshop. Editorial Spread The grid can be created in Quark or brought in from Illustrator as an EPS file. The Illustrations Select a section from a billboard or vignette illustration and convert the section to a duotone. (Please see specs for duotone treatment and curves. Duotones should be black plus PMS 124, 3035, 187, or cool gray or other Market Solution color; try to use the corporate palette.) Then, select an area of the illustration to emphasize. This emphasized area will be four-color. For example, a duotone illustration of people shaking hands could present the hands in four-color, emphasizing partnership. Package Design The illustration can be used over the entire cover and grayed out (see specs) with only key areas in duotones. Brochure Cover The illustration can run over the entire page. Editorial Spread The illustration is reserved for corners and should not have copy running over it. Blocks of solid and tinted color should surround the illustration. The remainder of the page should be various percentages of black (3, 5, or 7 percent) with no cyan, magenta, or yellow in the mix (K only). Color Bands or blocks of color (corporate palette) should be strategically placed throughout the layout. Colors should have overlays of light and dark percentages of black in some areas (without CMY) to create a layered look. The Letterform Brochure Cover A large letterform is placed over the layout and tinted lightly (see specs). Some edges of the letterform can run behind parts of an illustration if it is critical for that section of the illustration to be visible. Otherwise, 90 percent of the letterform should be on the topmost layer. A 3-point white line should surround the letter (except where an illustration overlaps), and the letter should base-align with the bottom edge of the spread. Letterforms should stand for a particular corporate group, such as: R = Reseller C = Channels T = Training M = Sales and Marketing S = Service and Support The letterform should be at least 95 percent of the height of the page.

The banners The sample on this page shows a full-color use of the Design Clinic graphic and is composed of PMS 124 (yellow), PMS 187 (red), PMS 3035 (deep teal), and black. The samples shown would accurately scale to a final banner size of 30 x 94 inches. When possible, please specify a banner material color that matches the background color (in this case PMS 187 on this page, and PMS 124 on the next page). The overprinted colors should always be reproduced at 100% for a richer, more interesting look. When creating banners for an event that includes a Cisco Design Clinic, be sure to include the corporate logo. The preferred positioning is bottom center, as shown in these samples. An authorized single-color usage of black is the most striking in this application. Please do not change the position or coloring of the corporate mark. When signage and banners are produced for any event, be sure to use the fonts and sizes as specified here to spell out the event, and not use any other logo in place of the Cisco logo.

Brand Attributes All existing and future Cisco advertising must communicate the following brand attributes and characteristics: Open Minded Accepting and developing technologies that solve our customers’ problems Expert The worldwide leader in networking for the Internet Positively Disarming Honest, straightforward communication with others Logo Placement The Cisco logo is set apart from other elements of the ad, separated by white space in order to provide quick identification of the Cisco brand. For Corporate, Solutions, and Channel advertising placed by Cisco Systems, the logo appears in the upper left or lower right corners of the ad, separate from the other elements. Cisco Powered Network/Solutions Ads The Cisco Systems logo and tag line are placed in the lower right-hand corner of the ad with the tag line. For Cisco Powered Network ads, the Cisco Powered Network logo is featured in the upper left-hand corner. Here’s an example of a typical single-page ad showing the relative sizes of the different parts being discussed. Approachable Talking in terms that our customers understand— conversationally and not offensively Print Advertising Page Layout To maximize communication of the Cisco brand, a look and feel has been developed that should be consistent across all print advertising. This is not a template, but a guideline to be followed to maintain consistency in all advertising efforts. The layout of Cisco print ads has a modular design. Each element of an ad (visual, headline, body copy) is contained within a roughly square, rectangular space. Headlines are reversed out of a darker background.

Typography Cisco has selected Univers and Univers Condensed for headlines and Sabon for body copy. Univers and Univers Condensed are classic-looking sans serif fonts that work well electronically, scale easily, and should be used as headline fonts. Sabon is a simple, elegant serif font that provides good contrast to the Univers or Univers Condensed headline. The Univers headline font may vary in point size, but must be at least twice the size of the body copy, or at a minimum, 18 point. The Sabon body copy should be loosely ragged rather than tightly packed, making it more inviting and easier to read. Body copy must not be smaller than 10 point. TO DOWNLOADS 73.0946 Advertising GO!
