New logo/Canvas
options
New
logo and Canvas dialog box will appear
when you click on the New logo button i.e.
Canvas button that can be found in the main
toolbar. These dialogs are used for setting canvas parameters when you create
a new logo document or for setting canvas parameters while working on the existing
logo. In addition to dialog names, the difference between New logo
and Canvas dialogs is that New logo
dialog has two additional controls for entering a file name and location.
Other options are the same.

Note: LogoMaker uses parameters from the two above mentioned dialogs during logo export or printing. For instance, if the canvas color is set for transparent, exported PNG file will be transparent as well. Also, a document size during printing or export will be adjusted for the canvas size set in these dialog boxes.
