How do I add and edit company logo?

User wants to add a logo to the company profile in BillQuick Online and also edit it, if needed.

You can add a company logo to desktop BillQuick, BillQuick Online and Web Suite, which then displays on your invoices, statements, etc. BillQuick supports a 125 x 125-pixel logo. If you select a larger image, BillQuick automatically downsizes it to the default size. The graphic must be in the .bmp or .jpg format.

 

Do the following to add a logo in BillQuick Online or Web Suite:

 

1. Click Settings on the navigation bar and select the Company tab.

 

2. Click the Add Logo option.

 

3. Browse to the folder containing your graphics. Select the file and click Open.

 

4. Click Add. The image displays on the Company screen.

 

5. Click Save and then Close to exit.

There are several programs that you can use to edit the logo image, if it doesn't comply with the above dimensions. The steps shown here may vary slightly. The following procedure uses a free software called IrfanView (this can be found on CNet website www.download.com).

1. In IrfanView, select File menu > Open.

2. Browse to the location of your logo image and open it.

3. Click Image, Resize/Resample or Ctrl+R.

4. Make sure to preserve the aspect ratio by selecting that option. The maximum pixel hight or width for a logo in BillQuick is 125 pixels. Replace the largest side with 125, the other side will automatically change to keep the same dimensions.

5. Click OK.

6. Go to File menu, Save As and name your file. 

7. In the Save As Type dropdown list, make sure Bitmap is selected and save the file.

Note: You may also have to change the dpi (dots per inch) of the logo; higher the dpi, cleaner the logo will look. This setting can be found in the same location as the resizing options. You might have to play with this option to get your logo to look the way you like it in BillQuick.
