Logo colour settings.

Right, creating a highly professional logo and will be providing it to the client who wants it in every possible format for any future use. The logo is two colour.

So far I have the following info provided as reference material:

Spot colours (PANTONE solid coated)
CMYK colours
RGB colours
Hexadecimal colours.

And I will be providing the following files:

Illustrator legacy EPS - full colour (ie: two spot colours)
Illustrator legacy EPS - one colour version
Illustrator legacy EPS - black and white

Plus I'm throwing in some flat raster tif and jpeg files for the benefit of printers/web designers they may deal with, as well as dropping logos into word etc etc.

Have I forgotten anything???

How about some guidelines, I usually include a A4 sheet with some pointers as clients will always manage to fuck the thing up somehow.

Yeh, I usually include information about the area surrounding the logo.

Such as giving the logo a 'safe-zone' of about 1cm all the way round that no text or image should be placed within.

I have in the passed provided a few optional uses too.

Yeah, guidelines that do not only illustrate how to use the files but how to use the logo; size, clear space and placement for example.

Yes, bizarrely this logo is more of a refit, its being bolted straight into their existing corporate set, and is the same as the old logo in terms of size usage and dimensions - but nevertheless very good point, it can't do any harm to reinforce those rules.
