Best: SVG, PDF, DXF, AI
Accepted: PNG, JPG, GIF
Helpful: high contrast, clear edges, black-and-white logos
Needs review: blurry screenshots, tiny text, gradients, low-res photos

Common questions

Before you upload

Can I upload a PNG or JPG?

Yes. PNG and JPG files are accepted, but they may need cleanup or tracing before they are production-ready for laser engraving.

Is a PDF always laser-ready?

No. A PDF can contain vector paths, but it can also simply contain a raster image. Hoyt’s will review each file before production.

Can I submit a business logo?

Yes. SVG, PDF, DXF, or AI logos are preferred. If you only have a PNG or JPG, upload the highest-resolution version you have.

Will you send a proof first?

Yes. For custom engraving work, the goal is to confirm layout and details before anything goes to the laser.
