    Yeh Tim, that’s what I mean. Just want to see what a good guideline covers.
    I have seen too many of my logos and layouts stretched, squashed and used badly at this stage and I know most don’t do it from malice so maybe an accompanying pdf would help.
    thanks

    Hiya Harry,

    I have a couple that I put in my DropBox Public. These should give you a good idea of a typical Corporate ID. Sometimes I’ve heard people call them Press Kits or Media Kits also.
