- 3. DEMO — IMPORT (5 min)
- ▸ [ON SCREEN: Ctrl+I, placing a photo] "Control I — Import.
- ▸ Click once: original size.
- ▸ Remember: photos are bitmaps — scale them up too far and they go blurry.
- ▸ Vectors — SVG, AI, PDF, EPS — scale forever, stay sharp.
- ▸ And the golden rule: only import what you own or what's copyright-free.
- ▸ Check which layer is active before placing — the Objects docker never lies."

- 4. DEMO — POWERTRACE, HONESTLY (5 min)
- ▸ [ON SCREEN: Trace Bitmap dialog, before/after] "Right-click the bitmap, Trace Bitmap, Logo.
- ▸ PowerTRACE converts pixels to curves automatically.
- ▸ Now the honest truth: the result is only as good as the source.
- ▸ A clean, high-contrast logo — decent trace.
- ▸ A photo — a blobby mess of a thousand shapes.
- ▸ It's a starting point, never a finished vector.

- 5. DEMO — EXPORT (7 min)
- ▸ [ON SCREEN: Export dialog, each format] "Control E — Export.
- ▸ PNG for web and social — it keeps transparency, and I set exactly 1080 by 1080 pixels.
- ▸ JPG for small photo files — no transparency.
- ▸ PDF for print and universal sharing.
- ▸ And this checkbox — Selected only — I select just the badge, export, and get the badge alone on transparency.
- ▸ Perfect for reusing elements.

- ▸ [ON SCREEN: Publish to PDF, then folder organization] "File, Publish to PDF.
- ▸ For a print shop I choose the Prepress-style preset — high quality, CMYK kept, fonts embedded or converted.
- ▸ Pro tip: ask the print shop which preset they want.
- ▸ Every shop has a favorite.
- ▸ Files named like this: SunSip-Card-1080-v2.png.
- ▸ Project, size, version — never 'final-final-2'.
