How to Export Logo Files Fast in Adobe Illustrator

The fastest way to export a complete logo package for client delivery

Exporting a logo package manually in Adobe Illustrator means repeating the same steps across every format, every colour variant, and every variation. For a standard delivery with four lockups and four colour variants, that is a significant block of time before the client has a single file.

Exportit is Akrivi's Logo File Generator built inside Adobe Illustrator. It handles the entire export in one run, formats, colour variants, folder structure, and naming, so you go from finished logo to complete client package in minutes.

How to export logo files with Exportit

Open Akrivi Studio in Adobe Illustrator and select the Exportit tab.

‍

Step 1: Select your logo lockups

The interface shows a grid of six slots, one for each logo variation in your file. Click each slot to assign the corresponding artboard or group: Primary Lockup, Secondary Lockup, Logomark, Logotype, and any additional variations.

Each slot shows a live preview of the selected artwork so you can confirm the correct element is assigned before exporting.

‍

Step 2: Choose your colour variants

Under Colors, check the variants to include in the export:

• Full Color: the primary branded version
• Black: single colour for one-colour print and embroidery
• White: for use on dark or brand-coloured backgrounds
• Greyscale: for contexts where colour is not supported

Check all that apply. Every selected variation will be exported in every checked colour variant.

‍

Step 3: Select your export formats

Exportit splits exports into two colour spaces:

• Print generates AI, EPS, and PDF file formats in CMYK, compatible for professional print production.
• Web generates AI, SVG, PNG, and JPG file formats in RGB, compatible for web and digital platforms.

Check Print, Web, or both depending on what the package requires. For a full client delivery, check both.

‍

Step 4: Name the client folder

In the Name field, enter the client or project name. This becomes the root folder name for the entire package, keeping the delivery clearly labelled from the start.

‍

Step 5: Set the export location

Click the folder icon in the Location field and choose where to save the package on your machine. Exportit will build the full folder structure inside this location automatically.

‍

Step 6: Export

Click Export. Exportit generates every file across every selected variation, colour variant, and format, organised into a clean folder structure with consistent naming — ready to zip and send to the client.

‍

What Exportit generates

A full export with all four colour variants across both Print and Web produces:

• Vector files: AI, PDF, EPS (Print) and AI, SVG (Web) per colour variant per variation
• Raster files: PNG and JPG per colour variant per variation
• All files named consistently and organised into the correct folder structure
