About this file

This is a National Park Service (NPS) design standards document providing color specifications for wayfinding signage and visitor information systems. The document, dated March 1, 2022, establishes Pantone and CMYK color specifications for design intent purposes, with instructions that standard color reflective vinyl sheeting should be used during sign fabrication, and when inks are used, colors should match standard reflective vinyl colors.

The document specifies four primary color categories: Identity Panel Colors (including ID Panel, ID Overbar, Alternate ID1 Panel, Alternate ID1 Overbar and Alternate ID2 Panel, and Typography options); Visitor Information System Panel Colors (including backgrounds, caution/warning, prohibition/danger, accessible, and brown panel back); Road Sign Panel Colors (including motorist guidance, pathfinder/park boundary overbar, highway green and parking, advisory panel, traffic regulatory and no parking, information, and brown panel back); and Post Colors (NPS Brown and Medium Gray options). Each color specification includes Pantone designations, PMS color codes, and corresponding CMYK values. The document is presented in Adobe Illustrator format, and inquiries should be directed to HFC_SI@nps.gov.
