# Ron's SA Landscape — Production Vector Package

These files are path-based vectors. They contain no embedded raster image and no live fonts.

## Which file to use

### Full-color reproduction

Use `rons-sa-landscape-full-color.svg`, `.pdf`, or `.eps` for:

- vehicle graphics
- monument and building signage
- digital and offset print
- large-format banners
- full-color transfers

The artwork uses seven traced tonal shapes to preserve the approved logo's dimensional appearance.

### Screen printing

Use `rons-sa-landscape-screen-print-3color.svg`, `.pdf`, or `.eps` for:

- screen-printed shirts
- promotional goods
- vinyl and spot-color applications

Spot-color values:

- Moss: `#97975F`
- Olive: `#5A5F23`
- Deep Live Oak: `#262708`

Have the printer assign its nearest physical ink system or Pantone match from an approved proof. Do not rely on an unproofed monitor-to-ink conversion.

### Embroidery — full lockup

Use `rons-sa-landscape-embroidery-1color.svg`, `.pdf`, or `.eps` for:

- large jacket-back embroidery
- work-bag embroidery
- large patches

Thread color: Deep Live Oak `#263815`, or the nearest approved thread-book match.

Recommended minimum width: **8 inches**. The lettering and leaf structure are too detailed for a small left-chest sew-out.

### Embroidery — emblem only

Use `rons-sa-landscape-embroidery-emblem-1color.svg`, `.pdf`, or `.eps` for:

- caps
- left-chest embroidery
- small patches
- uniform sleeve marks

Recommended minimum width: **3.5 inches**. For smaller applications, the embroidery digitizer should further reduce individual leaf holes and preserve the cross as the priority detail.

## Embroidery digitizing

SVG, PDF, and EPS are vector artwork, not stitch files. A qualified embroidery vendor must digitize the approved vector into the machine format required by its equipment, such as DST, PES, EXP, or EMB.

Digitizing guidance:

- keep the wooden cross readable before preserving minor leaf detail
- use satin stitches for the cross and key lettering where practical
- use fill stitches for the canopy and trunk masses
- avoid stitching every tiny leaf opening individually
- add appropriate underlay for the garment and thread
- test-sew on the actual garment material before production
- obtain approval of the physical sew-out before running the order

## Production checks

- Keep proportions locked; do not stretch or condense the logo.
- Maintain clear space around the circular emblem and wordmark.
- Do not recreate the cross as white negative space.
- Do not replace the approved tree/cross with another interpretation.
- Request a physical color proof for print and a sew-out for embroidery.
