Colors in Branding Style Guide are not consistent #13

Closed wenzeslaus closed 7 years ago

wenzeslaus commented 7 years ago

The page 9 of the Branding Style Guide shows the two main colors in the logo and as squares, but these don't fit with "for digital" and "for web" definitions.

Text says: #4cb05b #00393F Colors are: #4dbf5e #12343A

Image shows the difference (part of page 9 modified in Inkscape):

styleguide_colors

I don't have a good way to check the "for print/press" and "for printingpress" right now.

The rest of the guide seems to use the values I acquired from the boxes (or logo), not the one from the text.

The style guide was updated at about the same time as you reported this issue, can you confirm you are still seeing this inconsistency?

Yes. The same inconsistency as before. Slightly different actually (#4CBF5D #12343A). When viewing the PDF directly on GitHub, I get different colors (#4CBE6B #0B373D) in Firefox and Chromium, I don't know why is that, but regardless I would trust more the desktop view than the GitHub view.

You get inconsistency with different browsers. Not really a way to avoid that. But the main difference within the pages are the arrows (branding elements - footer and hero image) now. This occurs with compressing to .jpg or .png. We will change this to .svg where we can adjust the colours with code.
