Managing the Brand

Electronic Files

Our logos are available in three kinds of electronic file formats:

Screen viewing: These files are low-resolution electronic formats designed for viewing on computer screens. The most common types are JPEG and PNG. Because they are lower resolution, JPEGs and PNGs are smaller files. They are often imported into Microsoft PowerPoint and Word documents. When JPEG and PNG files print on desktop printers, color is often inaccurate, and edges appear jagged/pixelated. Never send JPEG logo files to be professionally printed.

Professional printing: These files are high-resolution electronic formats designed for professional presses. The most common type is called an EPS, which should contain vector artwork. When printed, vector files maintain accurate color and sharp detail.
