Logo for Business Cards — Workflow Example
Preparing a PNG logo for business card printing takes five steps: vectorize the logo, compose the card layout, set CMYK colours, add bleed, and export as a print-ready PDF.

Example: A user has a company logo as a 400×400px PNG with white background. They need a print-ready business card PDF for an order at a standard print shop.
Step 1 — Vectorize the logo. Upload the PNG logo to the Logo Vectorizer. The AI traces it to clean SVG paths with solid colour fills. Download the SVG.
Step 2 — Compose the card in Illustrator. Create a new document at 91×55mm (standard EU business card) or 89×51mm (US) with 3mm bleed. Place the SVG logo and add contact details in the chosen font. Keep all text and logo at least 5mm from the trim edge.
Step 3 — Convert colours to CMYK. Select all elements and convert fills from RGB to CMYK to match print output. Check the logo fills against the brand CMYK values in the brand guidelines.
Step 4 — Export as PDF/X-1a. File > Save As > PDF > PDF/X-1a. Enable Embed All Fonts. Include trim marks and bleed marks in the export settings.
Result: a production-ready PDF business card file with a fully scalable vector logo, outlined fonts, CMYK colours, and correct bleed — ready to upload to any online print service such as MOO, Vistaprint, or a local print shop.
