Logo reconstruction
Brand marks rebuilt as clean vector with correct geometry and spot colour values.
Vector services
Vector image conversion
Automatic tracing produces a file with thousands of anchor points, wobbling edges and colours that nearly match. It looks passable on screen and falls apart the moment someone needs to edit it or print it large.
Overview
What this service covers
We redraw raster images as vector artwork by hand. The result is a file built the way a designer would have built it originally: sensible paths, named layers, flat editable colour and geometry that is actually straight where it should be.
Typical sources are old logos with no surviving master file, scanned line art, technical drawings, plates from printed books, and artwork that only exists as a low-resolution JPEG someone found in an email.
What we provide
Everything included in the scope
Line art conversion
Drawings redrawn with consistent stroke weights and joins.
Full-colour vector art
Illustrations rebuilt in flat or gradient vector for unlimited scaling.
Technical drawing conversion
Scanned engineering drawings redrawn accurately to their dimensions.
Colour separation
Artwork separated into spot colours for screen printing and embroidery.
Multi-format delivery
AI, EPS, SVG, PDF and DXF as needed, plus flattened previews.
Process
How the work runs
01
Source review
We check what you have and confirm what is achievable from it before quoting.
02
Sample conversion
One image converted first so you can approve the standard.
03
Production redraw
The set is redrawn by hand, layered and named to an agreed convention.
04
Quality check
Every file is overlaid against the original and checked for drift before delivery.
Benefits
What you get out of it
Genuinely editable files
Paths a designer can work with, not an auto-trace mess.
Scales without limit
The same file works on a business card and on a building wrap.
Colour accuracy
Spot values matched and documented rather than eyeballed.
Print-ready output
Files that pass preflight at the printer, first time.

Questions
Before you brief us
Anything not answered here, ask directly and you will get a straight answer.
Ask a questionLower than you might expect. Because we redraw rather than trace, a small or blurry source can still yield a clean vector, as long as the shapes are readable. We will tell you before starting if it is not.
A single logo is usually one working day. Larger batches are scheduled and delivered in groups, typically twenty to fifty images per week depending on complexity.
Yes, where you can tell us the values. Where you cannot, we suggest the closest match from the artwork and flag it for your approval rather than assuming.
AI, EPS, SVG, PDF and DXF, plus PNG previews. Tell us the destination and we will supply what it needs.
