BRANDING TIP TUESDAY | Vector vs. PNG Files
Ever wondered why we ask for a vector file of your logo?
When it comes to custom apparel, signage, decals, and promotional products, the quality of your logo file matters!
✅ Vector Files (AI, EPS, SVG, PDF)
• Stay sharp and clear at any size
• Can be resized without losing quality
• Ideal for professional printing and production
❌ PNG Files
• Made up of pixels
• Can become blurry or pixelated when enlarged
• May require additional artwork preparation before production
📄 But what about PDF files?
Here's something you might now know: Not all PDFs are vector files!
A PDF can contain vector artwork, but it can also contain a regular PNG or JPEG image. Simply saving your logo as a PDF doesn't automatically make it vectorized.
That's why we check the artwork to make sure it's suitable for production!
✨ Why does it matter?
Where your logo is going on a small chest print or a large building sign, we want your branding to look crisp, clean, and professional.
Good artwork makes a BIG difference in the final product!
