Why changing a logo in a PDF is hard

A PDF is a finished file, made for reading and printing rather than editing. Free PDF viewers can't change pictures, so the usual options are a paid editor or going back to the original Word, PowerPoint or design file, which is often missing or out of date.

RepLogo changes the PDF itself. You don't need the original file or a PDF editor.

Replacing a PDF logo by hand vs. with RepLogo

In a PDF editor such as Adobe Acrobat Pro, replacing a logo means:

1. Opening the Edit PDF tool.
2. Selecting the logo on the first page and choosing Replace Image.
3. Doing the same on every other page that shows the logo.
4. Checking that each new logo lines up with where the old one was.

With RepLogo you click the old logo once and add the new one. Every page is updated in the same step.

How RepLogo replaces the logo in a PDF

RepLogo lists the images in your PDF and compares each one with the logo you clicked, including copies saved at a different size or compression. On every page where it finds the logo, it removes the old image and places the new logo in the same box.

The new logo is fitted inside that box without being stretched. If its shape is different from the old logo, it will be centered with some empty space around it. Transparent backgrounds are kept.

Which PDFs work best

RepLogo works best with PDFs exported from Word, PowerPoint, Google Docs, Canva or design tools, where the logo was placed as a picture such as a PNG or JPG.

It can't replace logos that are vector shapes (often the case with logos from Illustrator or SVG files), logos made of text, or logos in scanned PDFs, where each page is one large picture. A quick way to check: upload the PDF. If your logo appears in the list of images, it can be replaced.

Check these before you send the PDF

Look at pages where something overlaps the logo, such as text printed over it or a logo placed on a photo. The area directly behind the old logo can be cleared when it's removed.

If the PDF uses more than one version of the logo, such as a white logo on a dark cover page, each version is a separate image. Upload the downloaded PDF again and replace the second version.

Questions about PDF files

How do I replace a logo in a PDF without Adobe Acrobat?

Upload the PDF to RepLogo, click the old logo, and add the new one. RepLogo replaces the logo on every page and gives you the updated PDF, with no PDF editor needed.

Why isn't my PDF logo in the list of images?

Some PDFs store logos as vector shapes or text instead of images. RepLogo replaces images only, so those logos won't appear in the list.

Can I replace a logo in a scanned PDF?

Usually not. In a scanned PDF each page is one large image, so the logo isn't a separate image that can be swapped.

Is my PDF kept after processing?

No. Your PDF and logos are deleted as soon as processing finishes, and the updated PDF is deleted shortly after you download it.

Will the text in my PDF stay searchable?

Yes. RepLogo only swaps the logo images, so the PDF's text stays as it was and can still be searched and copied. The one exception is text placed directly on top of the old logo.

Can I replace a logo in a password-protected PDF?

Not while it's locked. Open the PDF with its password, save an unlocked copy, and upload that copy instead.
