This font is primarily used for major headlines, section titles, and as a large background font, especially as the word "OUR." This font should be used in all-caps.Characters
Secondary Typeface - ITC Cheltenham Std Condensed
This font should be used for all other headings in its condensed bold-italic format, and as body font in its book condensed format.Characters

Substitute Typography
Any outside partners hired to design materials for the School of Medicine are expected to purchase and use our primary font families, Knockout and ITC Cheltenham Std Condensed. However, not all members of the School of Medicine will have access to these fonts. In these cases, fonts approved by University of Nevada, Reno style guide – Myriad Pro and Minion Pro – can be used as substitutes:
- Use Myriad Pro Bold in place of Knockout for headlines
- Use Minion Pro in place of ITC Cheltenham Std Condensed for secondary text, such as body (paragraph) copy and sub-headlines
For team members who do not have access to Myriad Pro or Minion Pro, Verdana and Georgia should be used as substitutes:
- Use Verdana in the place of Knockout for headlines
- Use Georgia in the place of ITC Cheltenham Std Condensed for secondary text, such as body (paragraph) copy and sub-headlines
VERDANA BOLD – HEADLINES
Georgia Italic – Sub-headlines
Georgia Regular – Body copy
Finally, for team members who do not have access to Verdana or Georgia, Arial and Times New Roman should be used as substitutes:
- Use Arial in the place of Knockout for headlines
- Use Times New Roman in the place of ITC Cheltenham Std Condensed for secondary text, such as body (paragraph) copy and sub-headlines
