McMaster Spring 2017 diploma font


McMaster University has two traditional fonts that are used to create diploma templates; Goudy Text MT Std and Linotext STD. The Spring 2017 diplomas used the Linotext STD font – which contains a less stylized ‘v’. Due to availability, the two templates were both used to print diplomas.

There is significant care placed on diploma presentation. The Registrar’s Office meticulously hand checks every diploma not only for spelling but for any possible quality issue such as marks, smudges, misalignments or anything which might mar the diploma, or in any way diminish its presentation or the pride with which it is regarded by its recipient.
