Logo files at spareday
The files a signwriter needs.
Logo files for signage and vehicle wraps are the versions of your logo that can be printed at any size and in the right colours.
Printing a logo large, such as on a van or shopfront, needs a version that stays sharp at that size, with the colours set for print. If you only have the small image from your website, we can recreate the logo and build the full set. Based in Newcastle, spareday works with businesses across Australia.
What to send
Four files cover a van, a shopfront and a shirt.
- A vector file
- Lines stored as shapes rather than dots, so the logo is sharp at any size.
- The colours as numbers
- For print and vinyl as well as screen, so the van matches the website.
- A one-colour version
- For single-colour cuts, engraved signs and stamps.
- Spacing rules
- How much clear room the logo needs around it.
What to avoid
Files that usually cause problems.
- A logo saved from the website
- Usually too small to print large.
- A screenshot
- Carries whatever was behind it and cannot be cleaned up for print.
- A picture with a white box
- The box shows on a coloured van.
How it works
From your logo to a complete file set.
If your logo was made properly, these files may already exist. If not, we can recreate it as a clean vector and build the set.
- Check what you have
- Whether a vector original exists.
- Recreate it if needed
- A clean vector version of your existing logo.
- Build the set
- Full colour, one colour and reversed, with colour numbers and spacing.
- Send it to your signwriter
- Ready to print.
Good to know
Files, not the sign itself.
We supply the files. The files are yours to keep and send to any signwriter. Physical signs and vehicle wraps are made by your signwriter or offered as a separate paid add-on. For logo work, see logo design, graphic design, branding and how much a logo costs.

A few practical details
Before we get started.
What file does a signwriter need?
A vector file of your logo, the colours as numbers for print, a one-colour version and spacing rules.
Can I use the logo from my website?
Usually not for large signs. It is often too small and may carry a background.
What if I only have a small picture of my logo?
We can recreate it as a clean vector file.
Do you make the signs?
We supply the files. Physical signs and wraps are made by your signwriter or offered as a separate paid add-on.
