Are There Limits on Vectors?
Thank you! Those resources help!
I used them as a background but it was more of an overlay, like placing an image on the slide. I didn't use the slide background feature to apply them (if that makes sense).
I don't think I'll get make anything over 2048, I'd rather not melt this tiny computer. Would it be a safer bet to keep most of my vectors as PNGs instead? Will it effect how easily users can view the content once I put it in our LMS?
I wish I could share the project file but it has proprietary information in it... I was using resources from Canva, converted my Canva template to PowerPoint, and then all the images copy pasted as SVGs.
Thanks again for the response!
Hi EllieTang! Thank you for the extra details! A good rule of thumb when you're thinking about SVGs vs. PNG is that SVGs are perfect for crisp, scalable graphics like logos, icons, and diagrams because they’re vector-based and stay sharp at any size. PNGs, made of pixels, are better for detailed images like photos, screenshots, or anything with soft edges or transparency. When in doubt, use SVG for clean lines and PNG when detail matters.
We understand that you can't share a file but if you run into another issue similar to this, we can often work from a screenshot or even sign an NDA if you prefer.
