Remember to maintain optimal legibility by ensuring sufficient contrast between text and background. Fonts may be downloaded via the Adobe Creative Cloud suite.

Header

Minion Pro is the primary serif typeface for Brown University headline text. Georgia may be used as a web-friendly substitute if necessary, and in digital outputs like slide decks.

Body

Freight Sans and Gotham Narrow are the sans serif typefaces, although Arial may be used for desktop publishing and web or other digital interfaces.
