The email signature is a vital tool in presenting UAB as a unified brand, and consistency supports our message.
It should be formatted using Calibri or an approved font. The font size should not be larger than 12pt. The name and title can be green (R-30 G-107 B-82 or #1E6B52 in hexidecimal) or black. All other information should be black. Phone and email options can be changed as necessary to your preferred contact method (P-phone, O-office, M-mobile, F-fax, etc.)
See "Addresses" in the Writing Style Guide for the appropriate ZIP code for your unit.
