Inserting
ASU logo in your poster
Web graphics are usually
low resolution (72-96 ppi, which is not good
enough for printing). Therefore grabbing a logo
from an ASU web site and using it in your poster/
banner is not a very good idea.
ASU’s
Graphic Download Library
provides different kinds of official ASU Logos
in the EPS ( encapsulated post script) file format,
which is a high resolution vector graphic format.
All These logo files can be downloaded in a zipped
package and can be opened in Adobe Photoshop or
Illustrator
Downloading and Opening:
Go
to ASU’s
Graphic Download Library site and click on the
Print Graphics Link.
Follow
the instructions on the following page to download
the zip file containing the logos.
After
extracting all the logo files in a folder on your
computer, select a logo file to open and use Illustrator
or Photoshop to open it.
Resizing:
In
Illustrator you will find all the graphic elements
in the logo grouped together. You can select the
graphic by clicking on it, hold the shift key
(or the apple key if using a Mac) and drag the
corner to scale the graphic.
In
Photoshop, you can resize the logo by changing
the Image size
(Image > Image size…)
Creating a poster in
PowerPoint?
You
would still need to open the EPS file in Illustrator
or Photoshop and then copy and paste the contents
to the PowerPoint file.
To
resize the logo, on the Format menu, click Picture,
and then click the Size tab.
Or, select the graphic by clicking on it, hold
the shift key (or the apple key if using a Mac)
and drag the corner to resize the graphic.
