German term

nachsetzen

"Grundsätzliches

Grundsätzliche Regeln

ABC Logo

Das Logo bleibt immer unverändert und darf nie ***nachgesetzt*** werden. Es müssen entweder die original Logo-Vorlagen aus dem Handbuch oder autorisierte Daten verwendet werden."

From a manual about designing a particular company's corporate logo. None of the translations that I have found for "nachsetzen" (including those already in the KudoZ open glossary) make any real sense in this context. A couple of dictionares have "cut back", but that doesn't quite seem right. Is it just "redesigned" o something? TIA for your help, and a very Happy Easter to all.

recreate

Nachsetzen implies that it is a logotype, so reset is certainly legitimate, but I feel that recreate is more readily understood.

agree Günther Toussaint : or "altered", because the next sentence explains how to do it...

neutral Stephen Sadie : setting would be the normal term for printers., typesetters etc

Yes, Stephen, I agree, but printers are not users of CD manuals. It was my take that this instruction applies to company employees who are being asked not to create a letterhead or a fax form on their own. They are being asked to use the official logo.
