How do you guys in today's video, we're gonna be looking at how to convert a logo to bit map in game path, and this will be for fabric Cam. But before that, let's have a quick intro first. Today's video can be found on softwaretraining.co.za z. We make sure it's it's watch problem solving videos, and we also have daily updates. Otherwise, we're back into the tutorial here. Now, this is still part of our print job report. What are we gonna be doing now? Is looking at adding a logo to the actual print job. But in order to do that, we first need to make sure our logo is the right format, as the programme only supports. But map files or BMP files. So, um, the first method we're going to use is a programme called gimp. This is a free programme has been around for around 27 years Now, as you can see that for the celebration in the background, I've been using this for a number of years. It's the equivalent you can say our Photoshop, but free. We will be covering Photoshop as well. If you have that instead, Now you can simply go to their website dot org. You want to download it? So I'm just gonna assume that you guys can see it, click the download, the 2.10, and then you instal it and start it. Now, after you've downloaded and started, it will look something similar to this. Then what you wanna do is locate your logo. I've already located mine and then just either drag and drop it into the actual programme like that or you go on top here to file open, and then you go locate your file. Now, it is important if you have a transparent background like this because this was a PNG just to maybe make a white background. So I'm gonna go here on this layers menu, and then I'm gonna click this little paper with a plus and then from these settings, I'm gonna leave most of us. The name I might just change the I mean, most of the same. It's going to change the name to White, and then you have to fill with gonna change this from transparency. See, two white say okay and then what I can do now? I'm gonna just export this, or rather, first move this white layer down. So now you've got these buttons here on the actual layer menu as well. You can see up and down. Make sure your white layer is selected. As you can see, it's great out there, and I'm gonna click one down. You can also just simply click and hold with your left mouse button and move it higher. Sampson Photoshop once that is right. I'm gonna just export it. So we're gonna go file, and then we go export, as so as you can see there. Then I'm gonna navigate to the right farm, is gonna put it at the extension here at the back. Call it, uh, bmp. So I know which one it is. And then what you wanna do is I think in this programme, we can just change this extension two bmp. What we can also do is go over here, uh, select file type. Open that, and then we navigate down until we find the bit map file format. Now they've got quite a variety of different file format. You can export it as so. There we go. We've got bit map windows, bit map image export. And then I'm just gonna leave everything as default and say export. Now, in essence, this should be now correct. There we go. We've got a bit map can open it and then we can see we've got a little bit map logo, and it's ready all the programme. But before we upload it, we're just gonna look at a few different ways. We can do this in case you do not have camp, but before that, if we had to softwaretraining.co.za. You guys will notice we have a variety of different Softwares. We recover, and you can also isolate your search on the top, right? If you do not, however, find the training videos you're looking forward. Just simply go. Yeah, request the training video filling the mini form. And then we'll do our best to try and make that for you. But otherwise, thank you guys for watching and cheers
