=== Reversing Design Type Color to White ===
 
When the logo is used on a background that is darker than 50% grey, you should reverse the type to white for legibility:
 
## FOR DARK BACKGROUNDS
 
=== Greyscale Design ===
 
In greyscale reproduction, use the black and white version on the design:
 
==== For Use on Light Backgrounds ====
 
## FOR LIGHT BACKGROUNDS
 
==== For Use on Dark Backgrounds ====
 
For dark backgrounds in a greyscale printing situation, we recommend the Black & White design guidelines below.


=== Black & White Design ===

Sometimes, often due to production costs, only one color of ink is available and so the design must be reproduced using only one color. The design type must be clearly distinguishable from the background color. You must honor the Fedora Remix design palette when possible, using black or white if necessary.

The 'TM' trademark symbol must always be visible and readable for both the Fedora logomark (infinity symbol) and the Fedora logotype ('fedora' text) in the placements shown in these guidelines. You may not remove or obfuscate either of the TM symbols in the Fedora logo.

The Fedora Remix Design: Usage Guidelines

In order to protect and grow the Fedora brand, we have a distinguishable Fedora Remix design that can be used without permission to mark content that is derived in part from Fedora. There are guidelines for the design's appearance and usage, outlined here.
