Tips and More Recommendations

• Simplify Information: Not everyone uses a fax machine or needs to know your mailing address. For your safety and to simplify your email signature, use the department's physical address or fax number only when necessary.
• Use Legible Typefaces: We recommend using a simple sans-serif font (examples: Arial or Segoe UI)
• Highlight Your Name: Make your name bold and as well a little larger than the rest of the information below it.
• Highlight Your Job Title: Make your job titles in italics.
• Use Official Department Names: Be sure to state your department name correctly. Refer to the Editorial Style Guide to verify the name.
• State the University Name Correctly: Use one of the following versions of the university name, and be sure to use the en dash.
• Use Black: Set the text in black.
• Avoid Images: Inserting images in the email signature will not always appear as intended nor successfully be previewed by your recipients. Do not use social media icons.
• Avoid Quotes or Additional Statements: As your email address and signature represent the university, anything you choose to include will be communicated on behalf of BYUH.
