UWSP Standards Stationary Page

Stationery for UW-Stevens Point includes letterhead, envelopes, fax cover sheets, mailing labels, business cards, notecard/invitations and nametags. They are one of the primary means of establishing an image of the university when making one-to-one contact with individuals off campus.

Letterhead displays the logo and signature at the left margin. Name of the department or unit will appear underneath the signature on the left with a maximum of three lines. Address information on the right can be a maximum of four lines and may include mailing address, phone, fax, email and Web site. Names of individuals are not used.

Letterhead prints black on white stock. You may use white 24#, 25 percent rag content paper, or for large mailings you may use 20# bond laser printer compatible paper.
Contact the publications coordinator to request an electronic template or hard copy masters. Templates/hard copy will be created as quickly as possible on a first-come, first-served basis.
Revisions to letterhead must be approved by the publications coordinator. If your current letterhead does not look like these examples, please stop using it. See page 24 for suggestions regarding alternative letterhead. The only approved electronic "downloadable" letterhead is issued by the publications coordinator. Please stop using any other electronic version.
Letterhead will be printed by an off-campus vendor once every few months. Order through the publications coordinator.
