Logo File Formats for a Custom Badge
| File Format | Type | Print Result on a Badge | When to Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI or EPS | Vector | Sharpest possible, scales to any badge size | Original logo file from a designer |
| SVG | Vector | Sharpest possible, scales to any badge size | Logo exported from web or design tools |
| Vector (usually) | Sharp if saved from a vector source | When no AI, EPS, or SVG exists | |
| PNG | Raster | Sharp at 300 DPI or higher; supports transparency | Logo downloaded from a website |
| JPG | Raster | Acceptable at 300 DPI; no transparent background | Last resort; a white box may print behind the logo |
Vector files scale to any badge size without losing sharpness. Adobe defines vector files as images built from mathematical formulas rather than pixels, which is why AI, EPS, and SVG stay crisp at any size.
Frequently Asked Questions
What file format should a logo be for a custom name badge?
Vector files (AI, EPS, SVG, or vector PDF) print sharpest because they scale without pixelation. A PNG or JPG at 300 DPI or higher at print size also works. NameBadge.com proofs every logo at no charge before production.
How much does a custom name badge cost?
A standard 1 x 3 inch plastic badge starts at $8.99 each, and bulk pricing drops as low as $7.24 each at 500 or more badges. There are no setup fees.
What size should a custom name badge be?
The 1.5 x 3 inch size fits a logo, a name, and a title on separate lines. The 1 x 3 inch size suits name-only or name-plus-credential layouts.
Can I order just one custom name badge?
Yes. There is no minimum order, and single-badge reorders for new hires pull the saved logo and layout from the original order.
Which lasts longer, plastic or metal?
UV-printed plastic lasts 2 to 4 years of daily wear. Engraved brushed aluminum lasts essentially forever because the lettering is cut into the metal.
How fast do custom name badges ship?
Standard production is 24 to 48 hours after proof approval, and orders placed by 2 PM Eastern get a proof the same day.
Should I choose a magnetic or pin fastener?
Magnetic backings attach without putting holes in clothing and suit daily wear. Pins cost less and are the safe choice for anyone with a pacemaker or implanted device.
Where are the badges made?
Every badge is printed, engraved, cut, and shipped in-house at NameBadge.com facilities in Cooper City, Florida and Greenville, South Carolina. Family-owned since 2002.
