Quality Checklist
Before delivering logo package, verify:

- Transparent PNGs have clean alpha channels (no white halos)
- File sizes are optimized (under specified limits)
- Logos display correctly on light and dark backgrounds
- Safe zones respected (no cropping of critical elements)
- File naming follows convention:
{client-slug}_{Platform}_{Type}_{Size}.{ext} - All files saved in RGB color mode (not CMYK)
- Vector files have converted fonts (no missing font errors)
Common Issues and Solutions
Issue: Logo too small on platform
- Solution: Always upload at recommended size, not display size (e.g., upload 400×400px even though displays at 110×110px)
Issue: White halo around transparent PNG
- Solution: Use "Remove Matte" or rebuild transparency in design software
Issue: Logo pixelated on high-DPI screens
- Solution: Provide 2x versions (800×800px instead of 400×400px)
Issue: Logo cut off in circular displays
- Solution: Keep critical elements within center 60-80% safe zone
Issue: File too large for platform upload
- Solution: Use image optimization tools (TinyPNG, ImageOptim) to reduce file size without quality loss
