Best Practices

Logo Design

1. Keep it Simple: Avoid overly detailed logos that don’t scale well
2. Consider Printing: Test logos on actual printed documents
3. Consistent Branding: Use the same logo across all document types
4. File Optimization: Optimize file size while maintaining quality

Configuration

1. Start Global: Configure a global logo first, then customize by context as needed
2. Test Documents: Print sample documents to verify logo appearance
3. Backup Logos: Keep original logo files in a secure location
4. Review Periodically: Update logos when branding changes
