Artwork Guide

What File Type Do I Need for Logo Printing?

The best artwork file is usually a clean vector file such as AI, EPS, PDF or SVG. High-resolution PNG, JPG or TIFF files can also work for printing if they are large enough.

For embroidery, the logo still needs to be prepared for stitching, so tiny text and fine detail may need simplification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I upload a PNG logo?

Yes, but it should be high resolution and ideally have a transparent background.

Can SVG or PDF be previewed safely in the browser?

For the planned editor, complex and vector files should not be rendered as unsafe previews. They should show a professional file uploaded state.
