Iconography

Usage

Icons are visual representations of USPS^® products, services, features, and actions.

• Icons Come in 3 Basic Sizes. Small, Standard (Medium), and Large. Plus XSm and XLg for specific use cases.
• Use the Proper Weight and Sizing. Make sure all icons on a page have the same size ratio.
• Use Only for Their Intended Purpose. USPS.com icons are tied to specific USPS products, services, features, and actions.
• Don't Overuse Them. Not everything needs an icon.
• Tag Them Correctly. Icons require tagging to meet Section 508.

What Not to Do:

• Don't Mix and Match Icon Sizes.
• Don't Create Your Own Icons, including resizing. All icons must go through the USPS legal approval process before implementation. If you can't find what you're looking for, contact the USPS Digital CCB.

Icon Sizing & Color Standards

The USPS design system uses icons that are square and rectangular (horizontal and vertical orientations). Sizing is based on the tallest/widest dimension of the icon.
