Nukien, Leo,
There is a simpler way to do this, we use it for all sorts of
documentation issues in our designs where we may use narrow lines, spacing or
text that doesn't need spacing. For your spacing or width rules just make one
rule each that specifies the minimum space or width for "All Nets", then delete
the spacing or width rule for "Board". This changes your default spacing or
width rule so that it only applies to nets, not just text, lines or
un-associated fills. Afterall, aren't we only interested in these rules for our
actual traces/nets, not misc. documentation and other non-PCB issues within the
database.
Then after placing your logo (the line/track only version) I would
convert it to primitives so that it is not treated as a part.
Sincerely,
Brad Velander

Actually, there is a way around this in P99SEsp6.
Create a DRC rule that specifically states that the clearance between any
two objects of the footprint <company logo> is 0 mil.
Next, also create a DRC rule that says the minimum track width of the
footprint <company logo> is 1 mil and you're all done.
