<li><u>Do Not Use Trademarks That Do Not Appear on the List of GNOME Trademarks (which
be found at www.gnome.org), or Forms of GNOME Trademarks that Vary From the List.</u>
<p>
Even a seemingly innocuous deviation may create a new and different trademark. Do not
shorten, abbreviate or create acronyms out of GNOME Trademarks. A trademark that is depicted as
or more words should never be compressed into one word or vise versa. Check the list of
GNOME Trademarks at www.gnome.org to verify exactly how the marks should appear.
</p>
</li>
<li><u>Use Proper Notice of Trademark.</u>
<p>
Identify GNOME Trademarks appropriately as a registered trademark (using the circled-R
symbol – ®), or as an unregistered trademark (using the “TM&rdqou; symbol – ™) or an
unregistered service mark (using the “SM&rdqou; symbol – ℠). Check the list of GNOME
Trademarks found at <a href="http://foundation.gnome.org/licensing/">http://foundation.gnome.org/licensing/</a> to verify the correct symbol to use for each name.
</p>
</li>
<li><u>Distinguish GNOME Trademarks From Surrounding Words.</u>
<p>
Capitalize the first letter or capitalize the entire trademark, underline, italicize, place the
mark in quotes, or use a different font for the mark.
</p>
</li>
<li><u>Use of Trademarks in Titles.<u>
<p>
You may reference GNOME on the cover and title of a publication provided you comply
with the guidelines herein and the following specifications:
<p/>
<ul>
<li> Your name and/or logo should appear more prominently than the GNOME mark
on all printed materials related to the publication.</li>
<li> You should include a disclaimer of sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement by
GNOME on the publication and on all related printed materials:
Correct: “(Title) is an independent (publication) and is not affiliated with,
authorized by, sponsored by, or otherwise approved by GNOME Foundation.&rdqou;</li>
<li> You may use a GNOME Trademark as the leading word in the title of a single
book but only if you have written permission to do so from GNOME.</li>
<li> You may not use a GNOME Trademark or any other words or logo(s) in a manner

</ul>
</li>
</ul>

misleading.</li>
