What are logos in team assets?

Logos are image files that are used to brand your document. They're designed to be replaceable with other logos.


What does being replaceable mean?

Simply put, this means that if you want to replace the logo with another one, you don't have to delete, re-insert and reposition (or possibly re-embed) your new one.

Rather, simply click on the logo, click on the replace button on the context toolbar and from there you can select your new logo.


What does being marked up as a logo mean?

Logos are tied to your brand, hence when you open a template from the file picker - it'll update the theme colors, styles and logos etc to match the selected brand (If no brand is selected, nothing is updated and the template defaults are maintained).

If you add a Logo from the asset library into your document, it'll insert it 'as is' - i.e. as it does in the thumbnail. If you then change the brand, it'll replace anything marked as a logo, with what is set in the brand.

Logos can be combined with other objects to form components, for example as a footer or letterhead of a document.
