We’ve all used that famous DVD Logo in most, if not all, of our covers. However, did you know that there are guidelines that should be followed when using this distinguised 3 letter logo?
The DVD Format / Logo Licensing Corporation exists to regulate the use of the DVD logo.
“The DVD Logo is a mark that symbolizes the legitimacy and better compliance of the DVD product. Its correct use shows that the product was manufactured by a Licensee (legitimacy) and that the product passed the Verification (better compliance).”
A format book is available for purchase, for as much as $5000, that outlines when this logo can be used and the specifications that are associated with the logo.
So before you go slapping this logo on any personal DVD based projects you have that you intend to sell to the public at large, you should definitely check out this website. ![]()
Of course, these are technicalities … but sometimes, the little technicalities are what cause the biggest trouble.
