The handoff

Keep in mind

Text can be clipped or rendered with poor contrast, and selected type styles or visual elements may not be licensed for the intended use. Review the image at its final size, check spelling, brand rules, accessibility, and rights, and require a person to approve the exact image and destination before external publication.

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose image dimensions and format

Set sizes and file formats that fit the intended placement and are supported by the receiving service.

Set visual and accessibility guidance

Use rights-cleared fonts and artwork

Confirm that each type style and asset is licensed for the planned use and keep its source information.
