If a logo or company letterhead paper is not available, then the release should be printed on white paper with black ink and with a simple, basic font.

If a second page is needed, it should be clearly labeled as the second page.

The press release is about an important and timely news item. It is a news article about a new event, new information, a new product, or a new publication. The first paragraph contains the important information about who, what, where, when, and why, and it should be written in a straight forward style.
The second paragraph presents the human interest side of the news event without hype or exaggeration. It explains in detail about why the reader should care about the event and how it will affect them. This paragraph is the place to include a personal touch such as a good, short quote.
