Text, Typography, and Style Guidelines
Lead lines, if required by the author, should be Arial Regular, 14 point
• Body text and bullets should be flush left beginning at the top point on
the slide
• Bullets should use sentence-style capitalization with no periods at the
end of each entry. If there is more than one sentence per bullet, the last
sentence does not have a period
• Tabular information and labels on charts and diagrams generally
use title-style capitalization
• Spell out “and” unless the ampersand is part of a proper name
• “Cont’d” is the standard abbreviation for “continued” and should be
placed in parentheses

– En-dashes (–) should not be substituted for em-dashes
• Correct punctuation errors before finalizing
• Do not double-space after periods — use a single space

acronyms, etc.

Basics of Charts, Diagrams, and Graphics
• Copy the sample table from the _FMT you are using
no
– Use “Distribute Rows and Columns Evenly”
when feasible
27%
22%
• Copy the sample org or box array from the _FMT,
using preset text in boxes and alignment tools
• Copy the sample bar and pie charts from the _FMT,
using preset styles and real data to create line,
bar, and pie charts
• Always use two-dimensional bar charts, etc. —
three-dimensional charts skew data relationships
• Do not place text over images

Gradients
• Avoid gradients unless they are necessary for understanding
Use a gradient to
show movement
To This Point when an arrow is
not appropriate
From
Here
• If you must show depth, use a solid color
• If you must use a gradient, do not angle it — if the end user’s printer
driver does not support it, the angled gradient will explode
• It is best to avoid the transparency function — many printer drivers
do not support it
* Use 3D only when
essential to the meaning
of the graphic

Buttons and Bevels
• Do not use bevels in chart designs; they add visual clutter
no
yes
Process
• Use bevels and rounded shapes only when needed to enhance meaning
– When the shape represents an actual interactive button, such as a Web icon
– When the impression of depth is central to the meaning of the graphic
– Check “high quality” in Print dialog box
Use only a slight, elegant
bevel, and maintain a
consistent depth when
resizing shapes
Or use a beveled shape
from Photoshop
(120 ppi, save for Web,
80% .jpg)
Or use a PPT 2007 bevel

Using a Projection Box as a Graphic
• Projection boxes always carry the “voice of CSC”
• Should not be used as a generic shape (e.g., not for flowcharts)
• Do not always have to emerge from the CSC logo
Projecting
from the
short side of
the logo
Projecting
from the
notch of the
logo
• Always five-sided
• Fit type to square area of box
A second
box may
emerge
from the
first
• Add a notch to the projection box
• It now has six sides
