Stanford University Stationery
The Stanford University stationery design incorporates the Stanford signature in a classic, centered layout. This standard layout should be used on all stationery items relating to Stanford's academic and research missions. Other programs may also use the more informal stationery design, which incorporates the Block "S" signature.

You may place an online order for stationery. Our online printer is an experienced, well-respected local printer who has agreed to provide high quality work at favorable pricing to the Stanford community. Our online printer is familiar with Stanford's stationery layout and how to modify it to meet your needs.

If you are NOT using the online ordering process and are producing your own stationery, in the download section you will find both layout instructions (pdf file format) and eps files with the graphic designs for the stationery layout. Please follow the instructions on the pdf files, and use the eps press ready files to insert your personal information. Do not alter the stationery layouts. If you need assistance, please contact the Director of Business Development at trademarks@stanford.edu or (650) 723-3331.
