Using the correct image format for the right job means your design output will be perfect. A poor image, blurred print or a missing picture in your online web use means you have used a wrong image format. Let’s first identify the final logo deliverable which will be shared by most of the freelancers before learning about the usage.
Image File Formats
JPEG
PNG
TIFF
GIF
PSD or AI
EPS
PDF
The above file formats can be identified with the extensions in the last for example. XYZCompanyLogo.pdf, XYZCompanyLogo.png etc.
Which file format should I use for digital images?
JPEG or PNG files can be used for any digital images/ formats online. JPEG files can be compressed to a considerable size however too much of compression can lead to pixelated output. You can use JPEG for online images which need faster downloading. A high resolution JPEG file can be used for printing and JPEG images can be compressed to a very small size and can be used for emailing or for a quick preview. When you need a web graphic with transparent background then JPEG is not useful because of its solid background colors.
PNG images are best suited for any background because of its transparency. If you would like to put up your logo in colored backgrounds or you use your logo to put on top of any picture then PNG file format is recommended. PNG files can be compressed without losing quality. Use PNG files to put your logo on

What is the use of AI and EPS Files?
These files are used for printing and editing purposes. Commonly referred to as working files, these files are easily scalable for print. These files are editable in Adobe Illustrator and can be used for printing large billboards to banners. These files require Adobe Illustrator to view and edit.
Can I use PDF for printing?
Of Course you can use PDF for printing, few printers prefer to use PDF files for printing, they are easy to read and can be used in different backgrounds. Adobe Photoshop or AI files can easily be exported to a pdf file compatible for printing.
The right file formats if used on proper materials would bring out a good result.
