Vector vs pixels

SVG and PDF logos are vector files: they are made of shapes and stay sharp at any size, from a business card to a van. PNG and JPG are made of pixels and look blurry if you enlarge them.

What you should receive

The logo as SVG, PDF and PNG, in full colour, black and white, and a version for dark backgrounds. Every package from us includes these.
