Official Color Palette OSU’s official colors shown here are Pantone 166 and 151 with full-color process, RGB and hexadecimal color builds. Pantone 166 is for printing on coated white paper stock. Pantone 021 is for all other media and surfaces, including uncoated and matte-coated stock. 021’s advantage over Pantone 166 is in its consistency and intense color while Pantone 166 can look brown in some applications. However, designers should note that the CMYK build for 021 doesn’t work well in many popular design computer applications. Also, designers must adjust the primary logo to the correct shade of orange according to the material and coating on which it will be printed. Use the color formulas listed below.
