Uploading Images to the Image Library

Supported file types for image uploads are:

• jpg (bitmap)
• jpeg (bitmap)
• gif (bitmap)

• svg* (vector-based)

*It will require VSTO version 5.7.2.1745 or higher to use svg

Recommended settings for image uploads:

• jpg file type
• RGB color type
• 150dpi resolution
• file size of no more than 500KB.

Maximum image size:

50MB

Image compression:

If images are uploaded in larger sizes, they are automatically optimized for Office use when inserted via Templafy add-ins. Images are compressed to avoid file sizes becoming extremely large, whilst maintaining the quality, meaning that images are shown on a presentation screen in high definition still look great.

Images are compressed to below 2000 x 2000 pixels, and less than 500 KB in size.
