    Default Removing small white corner triangles from a rounded logo

    This one has me stumped. A client wanted this logo to place on a picture on a calendar. As you can see, there is little white triangles on the corners. This originates from the original company logo - and they wanted me to take the white corners off.
    I've tried a lot of things. First I cropped leaving the black border - then I rounded the border. Didn't do it. The crop as transparent. I've tried everything in my knowledge tool kit, but I work with png, and also white background documents that I never had to worry about it.

    I'm just about ready to use a brush or some kind of a trace element.

    As its time sensitive, I've missed my deadline - but - how would the pros on the board do it. Many thanks,


    -Bill

    I would have looked for a vector version--Brands of the World has it.

    Failing that, I would have remade it in 5 minutes or so...

    Thanks Mwenz. I'm not that talented. I believe its the same logo that I sourced. If you put that on a a photo as a jpeg or vector, you'll still notice the small white triangles. any ideas how to get rid of them.

    Here it is dragged onto the pasteboard--no white at the corners.

    I've also put the vector, .eps file in a zip file and attatched it.

    for reference:

    as its only white that you need to remove, give the logo a multiply [stained glass] transparency, then carefully place a white shape behind that does not protrude, group, bitmap copy

    Bill, in Pro+, you can just Round Corners. It takes 2 seconds.
    In earlier versions, create a Curved Corner Rectangle, adjust size and curvature then Fill > Bitmap.

    The KalTire site actually has a good PNG already: https://www.kaltire.com/on/demandwar...NHL-Lockup.png
    You could remove the extra detail easily and gain a crisp 1500px wide image at 96dpi.
    Yes, you would need to overlap the R roundel with a TM one.
    It the light Grey was required, instead of White, you could overlay a grey rectangle and add a Multiply Transparency.

    I probably would just create a Black curved corner rectangle with a 1-step inner contour and set the inner to light grey.
    For the lettering, if there is a font, use that.
    If not, build the lettering from skewed rectangles for I, L, T & E. As you gain proficiency, do A & K and finally R.
    Trace these out with the Shape tool, but make them non-italic then skew.

    importing the eps supplied by Mike, as he states it comes in as vector. It's very simple to ungroup each group at a time then ungroup them and then add shapes. Make sure they don't remain groups. The the browser will then render them as vectors and not have to download any image at all. You can even add separate animation to shapes should you desire.

    See attached xar & preview. The only image on the page is the default.png/webp used to see how many images are loaded (Just this one).

    Thanks Everyone! Apparently the PNG worked well for print. I knew pro+ could do it. Late for my deadline and the printer used photoshop. Affinity and Pro + could do it as well.
    Appreciate the help and support. I like to learn something new everyday.
