It might not be the usual outcome, but an amendment of the drawing of a stylized or composite mark to present the mark in standard-character format doesn’t always represent a material change. Here are some representative examples:

As I understand your fact pattern, I think that is expanding the mark from a special form mark to a standard character mark which would not be allowed. The standard character mark needs to be a new application but it can claim ownership of the old registration if the old registration can be maintained.

Subject: [E-trademarks] Renewal Specimen
Client’s registration covers a combined word/design mark. The “O” in the word portion of the mark contains graphics. Client has removed the graphics from the O in the mark. Current use of the mark is just a word mark. Acceptable specimen or a material alteration for Section 8 & 15 purposes?
Responses greatly appreciated. Thank you.
