Your Logomax logo isn’t just a piece of art — it’s a fully scalable, professionally designed vector file made to shine across any medium or platform. But while the design itself is ready for anything, how you deliver or display it matters just as much. From high-resolution prints to website headers, social media posts, or mobile apps, every use case comes with its own format requirements. That’s why it’s essential to know how to convert between logo formats in Inkscape (SVG, PNG, JPG, PDF, EPS) — so you can adapt your logo to any environment while preserving its integrity and visual impact.

Inkscape’s vector editing tools give you full control over how your logo is exported. You’re not just resizing an image — you’re deciding how your brand will appear across print and digital platforms, how crisp the lines will look, and how the background will behave. Done properly, these format conversions ensure your logo remains sharp, consistent, and professional-looking, whether it’s on a business card, a billboard, or a browser tab.

This guide is designed to walk you through each format — SVG, PNG, JPG, PDF, and EPS — explaining not just how to export, but when and why to use each one. You’ll learn to:

• Choose the right format for the right context
• Set optimal resolution and transparency settings
• Maintain vector quality for print and design workflows
• Avoid common export errors that can weaken your logo’s presentation

Whether you’re preparing marketing materials, collaborating with developers, or uploading visuals to your website, having the confidence to convert between formats correctly means your brand always shows up looking its best — polished, powerful, and perfectly sized for the job.

Start with the Right File: Always Use the SVG

Before exporting your logo into any other format, always begin with the original SVG file you received from Logomax. This isn't just a technical detail — it's the cornerstone of producing sharp, professional-quality results every time you need your logo for a new use case.

The SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format is what makes your Logomax logo truly flexible and future-ready. Unlike raster formats such as JPG or PNG, SVG files are built on mathematical paths, not pixels. This gives you unmatched control and editability. An SVG file:

• Can be resized to any dimension — from a 16×16 px favicon to a billboard — without losing clarity or introducing pixelation
• Keeps every component fully editable in Inkscape, including colors, shapes, typography, and layers
• Supports transparent backgrounds, essential for clean exports without white boxes
• Preserves the original design structure, allowing grouped elements to remain aligned and consistently spaced

Whether you're preparing a logo for a social media profile, a business card, an online store, or a print catalog, all high-quality exports should begin with this vector master. Starting with anything else — such as a previously exported PNG — can result in blurry, distorted, or poorly cropped versions of your logo.

You can download your SVG file directly from your Logomax dashboard within 60 days after purchase. We strongly recommend saving this file in a clearly labeled, backed-up folder, such as /Logo/Master/, and never editing or overwriting it. Treat it as your original source of truth for all branding assets.

Important: Keep your SVG safe and untouched. Always work from a copy when exporting to other formats, so your master file remains intact for future edits or variations.

By consistently starting from your SVG, you're not only protecting your design’s visual quality — you're also simplifying your workflow and ensuring brand consistency across every platform.

1. Open Your Logo in Inkscape

To begin any format conversion, you'll need to open your original SVG logo file in Inkscape — the free, open-source vector editing software that’s fully compatible with your Logomax logo.

Follow these steps:

• Launch Inkscape on your computer
• Go to File > Open
• Navigate to your saved logo folder and select your .svg file (e.g., logo_full.svg)
• Click Open to load it into the canvas

Once your logo appears on the Inkscape canvas, you’ll typically see all the visual components — including your icon, brand name, and possibly a tagline — grouped together as a single unit. This is intentional, as it helps maintain the correct layout during exports and edits.

Before you proceed to export into another format, it’s a good idea to verify the internal structure of the logo. Press:

• Ctrl+A to select all elements
• Then Ctrl+G to group them together (or re-group, if necessary)

This ensures the logo stays intact as one cohesive unit and avoids misalignment or fragmentation when resizing or exporting.

✅ Tip: If you need to move or resize the logo as a whole, grouping prevents any accidental shifting of individual elements like text or shapes.

If you’ve already isolated a simplified or icon-only version in a separate file, the process is exactly the same — open the appropriate .svg version in Inkscape and proceed with confidence knowing you're working from a fully editable, high-fidelity source.

This foundational step ensures that every conversion you perform in later steps — whether to PNG, JPG, PDF, or EPS — starts from a clean, accurate, and well-structured design.

2. Understand What Each Format Is For

Before converting your logo into another format, it’s crucial to understand why each file type exists and what it’s best suited for. Using the wrong format can lead to poor image quality, compatibility issues, or a logo that appears incorrectly on certain platforms.

Below is a breakdown of the five most common logo file formats you’ll work with in Inkscape, along with when and why to use them:

✅SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)

This is your master format — and the one to always use as your source. It’s ideal for:

• Web developers who need crisp graphics at any resolution
• Editing in vector tools like Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator
• Preserving layered structure, editability, and transparency
  Use SVG whenever your logo needs to scale without losing sharpness or when you plan future edits.

✅PNG (Portable Network Graphics)

The go-to format for web and digital use. PNGs:

• Support transparent backgrounds (great for overlaying on websites or emails)
• Are pixel-based, so they lose clarity if scaled up
• Work well in PowerPoint slides, emails, and websites
  Use PNGs when you want a clean export that looks sharp and supports transparency — but don’t scale it beyond its original size.

✅JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)

JPGs are best for non-transparent, photographic-style use:

• Useful for blogs, newsletters, or social media
• Lighter in file size, but they do not support transparency
• Tend to compress the image, which may reduce quality
  Only use JPG when transparency isn’t needed and file size is a priority.

✅PDF (Portable Document Format)

The preferred format for printing or distributing clean, scalable graphics:

• Retains vector paths and sharpness
• Supports text, layout, and transparency
• Universally viewable across devices and easy to share
  PDFs are ideal for business cards, brochures, packaging, or flyers, and can be sent directly to printers.

✅EPS (Encapsulated PostScript)

A standard in the professional print and design industry:

• Used in Adobe Creative Suite, CorelDRAW, and other design software
• Maintains full vector quality and transparency
• Required by many print shops, branding agencies, and designers
  Use EPS when working with design professionals or sending your logo to be printed on merchandise, packaging, or signage.

✅ Tip: If you're unsure which format to use, think about where the logo is going and whether it needs to be transparent, scalable, or editable. That alone will usually guide you to the right choice.

3. Exporting to PNG (for Web and Digital Use)

PNG is one of the most widely used image formats for digital applications, and for good reason. It supports transparent backgrounds, renders crisp lines, and is perfect for logos used in web headers, email signatures, presentations, or anywhere a clean digital appearance matters.

In Inkscape, exporting your Logomax logo to PNG ensures your design remains sharp and flexible for all online uses. Follow these steps for a clean, professional export:

Step-by-Step Export Instructions

1. Select your logo
   Click on the design or press Ctrl+A to select everything on the canvas.
   Make sure the elements are grouped (Ctrl+G) if you want them to move and scale together.
2. Open the export panel
   Go to File > Export PNG Image
   Or press Shift+Ctrl+E to bring up the Export PNG Image panel on the right.
3. Choose your Export Area
   Under the Export Area section, select one of the following:
   Selection – exports only the selected logo, perfectly cropped to its dimensions.
   Page – exports everything within the document canvas (may include extra whitespace if not adjusted).
   Drawing – crops tightly around all visible elements.
   
   ✅ Tip: “Selection” is usually the safest choice for logo export — it avoids excess whitespace and guarantees your logo is centered.
4. Set the desired size and DPI
   DPI (dots per inch) determines resolution. Use:
   - 96 DPI for websites and emails
   - 150–300 DPI for presentations or higher-quality digital use
   Optionally, adjust the width and height if you need a specific size (e.g., 400 × 400 px).
5. Ensure transparency (if needed)
   Go to File > Document Properties (Shift+Ctrl+D)
   Under Background color, click the color bar
   Set the Alpha (A) value to 0
   This ensures your logo exports without a background (ideal for overlays or websites)
6. Export the PNG
   Click Export As... and give your file a clear, descriptive name like:
   logo_web.png or logo_transparent_400px.png
   Choose a destination folder and confirm
   Finally, click Export to generate the file

When to Use PNG

• Website headers and navigation bars
• Transparent logos for overlays
• Email signatures and newsletters
• Digital presentations or pitch decks
• Mobile and web UI design mockups

Important Notes

• PNGs are not scalable like vectors. If you resize a PNG after export, it may appear blurry or pixelated.
• Always export at the exact size you need for your project.
• Transparency only works if you’ve correctly set the alpha channel and aren’t using a white or colored background.

4. Exporting to JPG (For Non-Transparent Display)

The JPG (JPEG) format is a widely used image type that’s best suited for situations where transparency isn’t needed and file size matters. While not ideal for every use case, it’s often required by blog platforms, advertising tools, or social media banners that don’t support PNGs.

Unlike vector or transparent image formats, JPG is a compressed raster file — which means it flattens your design, removes transparency, and may slightly reduce image quality depending on the compression settings used. Still, it’s a solid choice for simple digital placements that call for smaller file sizes or background integration.

How to Export a JPG from Inkscape (Using a Workaround)

Because Inkscape does not natively support JPG export, the process requires a short detour:

1. Follow the PNG export process
   Use the steps in the previous section to export your logo as a high-resolution PNG file.
   Make sure to use “Page” or “Selection” under Export Area and set your DPI to at least 150–300 for high quality.
2. Add a background color if needed
   JPGs do not support transparency, so if your logo includes transparent elements, you must add a solid background.
   In Inkscape:
   - Go to File > Document Properties (Shift+Ctrl+D)
   - Under Background color, set a desired background color — typically white (#FFFFFF) or brand-matching tones.
3. Convert PNG to JPG using an external tool
   After exporting the PNG, open it in a compatible editor or converter, such as:
   Photoshop
   GIMP (free and open-source)
   IrfanView
   Preview (Mac)
   Online converters like CloudConvert, Convertio, or TinyJPG

Then save or export the file as JPG, choosing high quality (usually 80–100%).

When to Use JPG

• Uploading your logo to platforms that don’t support transparency (e.g., some blog editors)
• Displaying on colored or photo-based backgrounds
• Embedding in social media banners or display ads
• Sending lightweight versions of your logo for review or reference

Important Considerations

• Do not use JPG for print or situations where sharp edges are crucial — compression can soften lines or introduce visual artifacts.
• Always flatten your logo onto a suitable background to avoid unexpected color clashes.
• Never convert from JPG back to PNG or SVG — it does not restore transparency or vector quality.
• Keep your exported JPG files clearly labeled (e.g., logo_banner_whitebg.jpg) to avoid confusing them with transparent versions.

Tip: If your logo relies heavily on white space, strokes, or fine details, test the JPG export by zooming out or previewing it on both light and dark backgrounds. This helps ensure the design remains readable even after compression.

✅ Summary:

While JPG is not the first choice for every branding use, it’s still a reliable option when you need a quick, compressed version of your logo without transparency. Exporting first to PNG and then converting ensures that you preserve visual quality while meeting platform requirements.

5. Exporting to PDF (For Print or Sharing)

The PDF (Portable Document Format) is one of the most versatile and widely accepted file types for both digital sharing and professional printing. It’s especially valuable for maintaining your logo’s vector quality, crisp lines, and precise layout when passed between systems — whether you're embedding it in a brochure, sending it to a print shop, or attaching it to a brand guidelines document.

Using Inkscape, you can export your Logomax logo as a PDF with full control over scale, layout, and compatibility.

Steps to Export Your Logo as a PDF in Inkscape

1. Open your logo in Inkscape, ensuring you’re working from the original SVG file. Make any necessary layout adjustments beforehand.
2. Group all elements (Ctrl+A > Ctrl+G) to preserve alignment and spacing across export.
3. Go to File > Save As
4. In the “Save as type” dropdown menu, choose “Portable Document Format (*.pdf)”
5. Enter a clear, descriptive filename, such as:
   logo_print.pdf
   logo_with_tagline.pdf
   logo_vector_color.pdf
6. Click Save — this opens the PDF Export Settings dialog

PDF Export Settings (What to Choose)

For most logo export needs, you can use Inkscape’s default settings, but double-check the following key options:

• ✅ Uncheck “Rasterize filter effects”
  This ensures that all design elements — including gradients, shadows, or strokes — remain in vector format rather than being flattened into pixels. Vector exports are critical for maintaining sharpness at any scale.
• ✅ Check “Use exported area of drawing”
  This trims the PDF output to fit the exact area around your logo instead of the full Inkscape canvas, avoiding unnecessary white space or misalignment.
• Leave other options as-is unless your printer or designer provides specific instructions (e.g., color profile embedding, compatibility versions).

Why Choose PDF?

• Perfect for Print: Retains sharp vector paths, ideal for brochures, flyers, signage, or packaging
• Cross-Platform Consistency: Looks the same on any device or software
• Editable in Other Software: Can be opened in Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer for advanced layout work
• Embedded Fonts & Colors: Ensures your logo stays brand-consistent when shared

Best Practices for PDF Logo Export

• Always preview the PDF after export using a PDF viewer to check layout and clarity
• Keep both color and black-and-white versions for different print needs
• Use 300 DPI resolution if you include any raster-based elements (e.g., embedded images)
• Don’t flatten to raster unless the recipient explicitly asks for it
• Label PDFs clearly, especially if sending multiple variants to printers or clients

✅ Summary:

Exporting your Logomax logo to PDF format gives you the flexibility and professional polish required for any print project or brand asset handoff. With just a few settings in Inkscape, you’ll have a high-resolution, scalable, and reliable file that reflects the full quality of your design — no matter how it’s used.

6. Exporting to EPS (For Professional Print Use)

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a widely accepted industry-standard format for professional printing and advanced design software. It’s especially useful when working with external designers, packaging teams, signage manufacturers, or print vendors who require a format that preserves scalable vector paths and integrates smoothly with legacy or Adobe-based workflows.

Exporting your Logomax logo to EPS ensures your design stays sharp, aligned, and editable — even in highly specialized production environments.

Steps to Export Your Logo to EPS in Inkscape

1. Open your logo in Inkscape, starting with your original SVG file. Make any layout or color adjustments beforehand.
2. Group all elements (Ctrl+A > Ctrl+G) to prevent misalignment when the file is opened in another program.
3. Go to File > Save As
4. From the dropdown menu labeled “Save as type”, choose Encapsulated PostScript (*.eps)
5. Name your file clearly and descriptively, such as:
   logo_vector_color.eps
   logo_tagline_only.eps
   logo_monochrome.eps
6. Click Save — this opens the EPS export dialog box.

EPS Export Settings (What to Choose)

For most print and design use cases, you can keep the default settings in Inkscape’s EPS dialog. However, here’s what each setting means:

• Bounding box: This determines the file’s visible area. “Visual bounding box” is fine for logos.
• Text output: Leave as “Convert text to paths” unless your print provider asks for selectable text.
• Resolution: This doesn’t apply to vector graphics but is used if raster effects are included.
• PostScript level: Leave at the default unless the recipient requests compatibility for older systems.

Unless you’re given specific instructions by your designer or print shop, it’s best to leave everything as-is.

Why Choose EPS?

• Fully vector-based: Maintains crisp lines at any size without pixelation
• Universal compatibility: Works with Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Affinity Designer, and most RIP (Raster Image Processor) systems used in printing
• Ideal for packaging, signage, apparel, and offset printing
• Supports transparency and color integrity when properly exported
• Compact file size, making it easy to email or upload without compression loss

Important Notes About EPS

• Inkscape may show a warning about EPS limitations. These are typically not relevant for logos and can be safely ignored.
• EPS does not support layers the way SVG does, so be sure to finalize your layout before saving.
• Fonts are best converted to paths to prevent missing font issues when opened elsewhere.
• Transparency in EPS is handled differently than in formats like PNG or PDF — always test your EPS export in Illustrator or a similar tool if you plan to use overlays.

✅ Summary:

When you're working with professional printers, designers, or product manufacturers, exporting your Logomax logo to EPS format gives them what they need: a clean, vector-perfect file that behaves predictably in virtually any production environment. Just make sure to export from your SVG master, name your file clearly, and confirm that all elements are grouped and finalized before saving.

7. Exporting Back to SVG (For Developers or Web)

After customizing or simplifying your logo — such as removing the tagline, isolating the icon, or adjusting colors — you’ll often want to save the new version as a Plain SVG. This ensures that your file stays lightweight, highly compatible, and fully editable across different platforms, browsers, and developer tools.

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) remains the preferred format for web development, responsive design, mobile apps, and scalable digital content, because it’s built for precision, speed, and flexibility.

When to Export Back to SVG

You should re-export to SVG if you’ve:

• Created a simplified icon version of your full logo
• Changed colors, layout, or sizing for a specific use case
• Removed or replaced text (like switching languages or shortening a brand name)
• Prepared a version for web or app developers to implement on responsive sites

Saving your updated version as an SVG ensures that it can be used seamlessly in HTML, CSS, JavaScript frameworks, and app environments — while maintaining full vector sharpness.

How to Export as SVG in Inkscape

Once your edits are complete:

1. Press Ctrl+S to overwrite your current working file if appropriate
   (Recommended only if you're saving a work-in-progress, not the original master)
2. For a clean export:
   Go to File > Save As
   In the file format dropdown, select Plain SVG (*.svg) — this strips out any extra Inkscape-specific data, making the file more compatible with most platforms
3. Choose a clear, descriptive filename, such as:
   logo_icon_only.svg
   logo_color_variant.svg
   logo_tagline_updated.svg
   logo_lightmode.svg
4. Click Save

Why “Plain SVG” Matters

Inkscape also allows saving in “Inkscape SVG,” which includes extra metadata and features specific to Inkscape’s interface. While useful for working within Inkscape itself, these additions can cause rendering inconsistencies when the SVG is used on websites or in apps.

Plain SVG is cleaner and more universally compatible — ideal when handing off files to developers or uploading to platforms that read native SVG code.

Where SVG Files Work Best

• Websites: Embed directly in HTML or link via CSS
• Mobile Apps: Perfect for scalable icons and UI elements
• Email Signatures: Crisp display at all resolutions
• Interface Design Tools: Like Figma or Adobe XD
• Future Editing: SVG retains full vector paths for easy revisions

✅ Summary:

Anytime you make significant edits or create logo variations, exporting back to SVG ensures your design remains versatile and future-proof. Choose Plain SVG for compatibility, use smart naming to keep versions organized, and keep your original SVG untouched by working from copies.

8. Tips for Clean and Reliable Conversions

Whether you're preparing your logo for a website, a print run, or a mobile app, proper exporting ensures that your brand looks polished, consistent, and professional across all formats. Here are best practices to follow every time you convert your logo in Inkscape:

✅ Group Your Logo Before Exporting to Keep Layout Intact

Before exporting, always select all elements (Ctrl+A) and use Ctrl+G to group them. This step ensures that your logo’s parts — such as the icon, brand name, and tagline — remain locked in their intended positions. Without grouping, it’s easy to accidentally shift components or export only part of the design, especially when using “Selection” as your export area.

Grouped elements behave as one unit, which is essential for maintaining visual consistency and precise alignment in your exported files.

✅ Use Descriptive Filenames to Avoid Confusion

Save each version of your exported logo with a clear, specific name that reflects its purpose. This helps prevent mix-ups and makes it easier to locate the right file later — especially if you're handing off assets to a developer, client, or print shop.

Examples:

• logo_full.svg – Original full version
• logo_web_header.png – Optimized for website header use
• logo_print_highres.pdf – For print materials
• logo_social_icon_400px.png – Icon-only version for social profiles

Avoid generic names like "logo1.png" or "final_final.svg", which cause confusion and often lead to using the wrong file in the wrong context.

✅ Test Exports on Target Platforms Before Final Delivery

After exporting, open each file in its intended environment to check for issues such as:

• Missing transparency
• Misaligned elements
• Blurry or pixelated edges
• Incorrect sizing or aspect ratio

For instance, test PNGs in a browser, PDFs in Acrobat, and SVGs in Chrome or your code editor. It’s much easier to fix a problem before delivery than after it's gone live or been sent to print.

✅ Export Only from SVG — Never from a Raster File

Every logo export should begin with your original Logomax SVG file. Avoid using a previously exported PNG or JPG as the source for additional conversions. Raster files (like PNGs) have fixed resolution and lose quality with each conversion — especially if resized.

Working from SVG guarantees:

• Crisp edges and smooth curves
• Editable components (colors, shapes, text)
• Scalability without quality loss

Think of your SVG as the digital “master file.” All other formats should branch out from it.

✅ Preview Background Settings to Avoid Unwanted White Boxes

Before exporting a PNG or PDF, always check your document’s background settings:

• Go to File > Document Properties (Shift+Ctrl+D)
• Under “Background,” set the Alpha (A) value to 0 for full transparency
• This ensures your logo doesn’t get a white or gray box behind it

A transparent background is especially important for websites, overlays, and social media icons — where any unintended background color can look unprofessional or visually jarring.

✅ Summary:

A few simple habits can dramatically improve the quality and clarity of your exported logos. Always group your elements, use clear file names, test before sharing, and start from the SVG to protect your design’s integrity. With these practices, your Logomax logo will always be export-ready — no matter where it needs to appear.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Even with the best intentions, it’s easy to make small export missteps that lead to blurry logos, awkward formatting, or unusable files. To ensure your brand always looks polished and professional, watch out for these frequent mistakes when converting logo formats in Inkscape:

❌ Using JPG for Overlays — It Won’t Support Transparency

JPG files do not support transparent backgrounds, which means if you place a JPG logo on a colored or textured background, you’ll end up with an unattractive white box around it. This completely undermines your brand’s visual quality — especially on websites, watermarks, or video overlays.

Use PNG or SVG if transparency is required. These formats preserve clean edges and allow your logo to blend seamlessly into any background.

❌ Repeatedly Converting Between PNG and JPG — This Reduces Quality

Every time you save and re-export a PNG or JPG, especially after edits, you degrade the image slightly more. These are raster formats, and repeated conversion introduces compression artifacts like blurriness, jagged edges, and discoloration.

Always work from your original SVG when creating new versions in other formats. Think of PNG and JPG as “end products” — not starting points.

❌ Exporting from PNG Instead of SVG — Results in Pixelation

Your SVG is a vector file, meaning it maintains crisp lines and smooth curves at any size. When you export from a PNG, which is already rasterized at a fixed resolution, any scaling or modification results in pixelation and quality loss.

Avoid this trap by never using a previously exported PNG or JPG as the source for a new export. If you no longer have access to your SVG, re-download it from your Logomax dashboard (within 60 days of purchase) and use it as your new master file.

❌ Forgetting to Reset the Export Area (Page vs. Selection)

When exporting in Inkscape, you can choose what portion of the design to include using the Export Area setting:

• Page exports the full canvas, which may add unwanted space or padding around the logo.
• Selection crops tightly to the logo’s actual size and shape.

For icon exports or pixel-perfect positioning, Selection is usually best. But forgetting to change this setting can result in files that are either too large, off-center, or misaligned.

Always double-check the export area before clicking “Export.”

❌ Using Low DPI for Print Exports — Use 300 DPI Minimum

DPI (Dots Per Inch) is a key factor for printed logos. A logo exported at 96 DPI, which is fine for web, will look blurry and low-resolution in print materials like business cards, brochures, or signage.

For professional print use, export your PNG or PDF at 300 DPI. This ensures that your logo maintains its crisp edges, vibrant colors, and visual integrity in all print formats.

If your logo looks pixelated after printing, low DPI is usually the reason — and once printed, there’s no fixing it. Always export high-resolution files for physical media.

✅ Summary:

Avoiding these common pitfalls will help you preserve your logo’s quality, ensure consistent branding, and save valuable time re-exporting files. Start from your SVG, choose the right format, and verify each export setting — that’s the key to converting with confidence.

Conclusion: Format with Purpose, Export with Confidence

Your logo is more than just a visual element — it’s a key part of your brand identity, and how you deliver it matters. Thanks to the precision of vector design and the flexibility of Inkscape, you’re equipped to export your Logomax logo in the exact format your project demands — with confidence, clarity, and complete control.

Whether you're posting to social media, embedding a favicon into your site, preparing a high-resolution print run, or handing off assets to a web developer or designer, your export choices directly influence how professional and polished your brand appears. Inkscape allows you to make those choices intentionally, without compromising on quality.

Every file type serves a specific role — and once you understand that role, format conversion becomes not just a technical step, but a strategic advantage. You control how sharp the edges look, whether a background appears, how fast your page loads, or whether your design prints without distortion.

Final Tips for Flawless Format Management

✅ Use your SVG file as the master source
Always begin with the original vector to preserve scalability, transparency, and editability. Avoid exporting from previously rasterized versions like PNG or JPG.

✅ Match file type to your platform
Choose your export based on where your logo is going:

• PNG for websites, emails, and transparent overlays
• JPG for simple digital placements where transparency isn’t needed
• PDF for clean, high-resolution printing
• EPS for professional designers and packaging workflows
• SVG for websites, apps, and future editing

✅ Keep exports organized with clear labels
Avoid version confusion by saving files with detailed, descriptive names — especially if you're sharing assets with teams, printers, or developers.

✅ Use proper resolution settings for quality and compatibility
Web exports typically use 96 DPI, while print materials should use at least 300 DPI. Always adjust your settings accordingly to ensure sharp, pixel-perfect results.
