(How to request a quote / order a Custom Logo Font)
Here is a brief summary of the process for producing your
Logo Font. Detailed instructions
follow further down this page.
- You send the best copy of your logo(s) to us, either electronically
or in the mail. You'll be asked to include any information about
colours, variants or other preferences.
- We examine your logo(s) and determine if we have enough information.
We will also determine if the quality of the logo is suitable
for conversion, and the cost for the conversion process.
- We return a formal quote by e-mail and direct you to a payment
page to pay on-line.*
- We produce your custom Logo Font and send it to you by e-mail
for approval. This will take between 5 and 10 working days, depending
on the complexity of the logo, number of variants, and colours.
- If required, we make any changes or modifications to your
Logo Font.
- Once you have confirmed that you are happy with your font,
we mail a copy of it to you on CD-ROM.
- If required, we include an example of your logo, with a link
to your company's web site, on our Examples page.

Note: A PayPal account is not required to make a credit card
payment.
UK customers may also pay by cheque.
Detailed Instructions For Submitting
Your Logo & Requesting A Quote
Choose The Logos You Want To Be Converted
You first need to decide on the logos that you want to have
converted. You've probably got a single main logo that is the
main identity for your organisation, but you may also have variants
of the logo, with or without straplines and other images. You
may have colour and mono versions of your logo. Remember that
we can reproduce colour logos*. You can ask us to convert other
text as well, such as your company address(es), registration
number, etc, so that they can all be inserted with a key press.
Don't forget, if your stationary has other logos (e.g. memberships,
awards and certifications such as ISO 9001 and Investors In People),
we can add them as well so that you can completely reproduce
your stationary with high quality scalable graphics. We may have
already created the more common logos, and can add them to your
font for a very reasonable price.
* Note: The success of colour logo reproduction is dependent
on the complexity of the image, the number of colours, and the
presence of colour gradients. Logos with colours gradients or
logos that contain photographs are particularly unsuitable for
conversion (see examples below). We will only attempt a colour
conversion if we feel the results are going to be acceptable.
If necessary, we will ask you to formally approve a preview of
the finished font before completing the work.
  Example
(Gradient Colours)
This logo (left) is unsuitable for conversion into a font because
it contains colour gradients. The blue background fades to white
and the letters have a yellow / orange gradient. When the colours
are reduced to produce the logo font, the colours become banded
(see example on the right).
The blue and yellow logo (right) has no colour gradients, and
is therefore suitable for conversion.
For Quantum Enterprises to successfully produce a quality
custom Logo Font, we require the best quality version of your
logo that you can supply:
Electronic Version
If you already have an electronic version of your logo (e.g.
a bitmap, gif, jpg, tiff or pdf version), then you can attach
a copy of the file(s) to an e-mail message when you request a
quote.
The electronic version must be of a good resolution to allow
us to produce a high quality font. For example, if the logo image
is only less than 2000 pixels on the longest side, you are probably
better sending a hard copy of your brochure, or pre-printed stationary,
in the mail.
 IMPORTANT:
We cannot accept attachments that are larger than 3 MB (megabytes)
each. Please check the FILE sizes of the images you
are planning to send. Many e-mail systems will not accept files
that are too large. If you have multiple logos to send that are
very large files, please attach them to separate messages.
Files that are too large will be deleted from our server and
we will request you to re-send the files, either as smaller versions,
or in another format.
Please send copies of all of the logo variants that you require
to be converted.
Hard Copy
As mentioned above, if you do not have an electronic version
of your logo(s), please post in the mail the best and largest
printed version of your logo that you can find.
You may send pre-printed stationary or a copy of your company
brochure.
We will use our high quality scanning equipment to obtain
a good quality image. This will allow us to produce a high quality
font from the material supplied.
Information Required With Your Submission
Please supply the following information when submitting copies
of your logo.
