Just about every client I've worked with NEVER has a scalable vector of their logo, but a multitude of heavily compressed jpgs.
Do they literally throw .eps files away when given them?
- Absolutely. It's just something that clients never think of or understand. They can't open them in powerpoint so think they are not useful and bin them.Hayzilla
- Love the Wall E analogy. haha.
My favourite that happens LOADS is renaming a .jpg as .eps and sending me that. LOL.Hayzilla - The best (worst?) is when they place said compressed jpeg into a word document, distorted out of proportion, and give that to you.monospaced
- My fave is the attached word document with a tiny 32k gif inserted into a table.monoboy
- 'Can't you just photoshop it?' is the usual response to we can't print this.monoboy
- ^ ha, mono. Your post didn't show as I was typing mine.monoboy
- Ha. And then you realize they don't even know how to save files to their computers and have been taking screenshots the entire time.monospaced
- Yup. Had that one before.monoboy
- I just avoid the inevitable client idiocy and get the logo from their site - company reports and news PDF normally contain vector versions. Fuck em.face_melter
