      • Testing: Always test your logo sizes on mockups or samples before final production or digital implementation to ensure they meet your expectations.
      • Vector Formats: Always maintain a vector version (AI, EPS, SVG) of your logo for scalability without loss of quality.
      • Pixel-based Formats: Export raster versions (JPEG, PNG) in appropriate sizes and resolutions for specific digital and print uses.
      • Transparent Background: Use PNG format for logos requiring a transparent background, ensuring versatility across different colored backgrounds.

      Adjust sizes and resolutions based on specific requirements and platforms to effectively represent your brand identity and maintain visual consistency. Regularly review and update your logo sizes as needed to adapt to new technologies and design trends.
