Brochures, Postcards and Inserts: Charts
Typography
All copy should be presented in GE Inspira. Bolding, italics,
capitalization and highlighting are design devices that can be
used in direct response. Don't use more than 4 font styles on
these types of components to avoid clutter.
Copy can be centered or justifi ed in any way necessary to clearly
present information.
"Highlighting" techniques can be used to draw the reader's eye to
very specifi c points and diff erentiated benefi ts (e.g., savings).
Color
Charts should have a dominant color that matches the
Monogram and headlines. But both tints and secondary colors
can be used from the approved GE color palette to break up
heavy copy for easy navigation of information.
In-Market Testing
Testing of alternate fonts is limited only to handwritten fonts.
The use of handwritten fonts on an insert, such as a lift note,
is appropriate in select test markets where it is intended to
stimulate call-to-action, to highlight important product or service
benefi ts or as a "personalized message" to encourage response.
Tests should be limited to where results can be compared against
creative that complies with current brand guidelines.
Indiscriminate use of alternate fonts is discouraged and GE
Inspira should be used in all direct communications.
