What is a Logo ID and what is a Logo Type?

A Logo ID is a unique number assigned to an embroidery design created to be used on a specific product category. We call our product categories Logo Types and they are: embroidered apparel, hats, visors, and Fleece.

Shirts, hats, visors and fleece all have unique characteristics that have to be considered in "digitizing", or creating, an embroidery design from your logo. Shirts are flat when they are embroidered, hats embroider across a curved surface, visors also embroider across a curved surface, but have a smaller embroidery area, and fleece, which also lays flat when embroidered, is very thick and often has a lot of surface texture which requires extra compensation in digitizing.

Because of these unique product characteristics we have to create individual embroidery designs with separate Logo ID's for each of these product categories. So while it may appear that several logos in a customer's account will look identical, in fact these identical looking logos are digitized very differently, and each product type needs to be embroidered in a separate embroidery run.
