Article(s): University of Medicine 2, Yangon, University of Medicine, Magway, University of Medicine 1, Yangon
Request: For the UM2-Yangon and UM-Magway logos, the grass blades are really fuzzy and it's slightly inaccurate. A more accurate photo of the logo can be found [1]. The Caduceus symbol has a pair of wings (with six visible feathers), tinged with white on the edges, as in the picture. Also, the book has 3 visible pages on each side, similar to the UM-1 logo. As for the UM-1 logo, the grass blades are NOT embossed in the actual form.
The Burmese text is the same for both:
ဥပဌာနံအနု ကမၼာဒယာ
Except in the UM-1 logo, it's written in two lines:
ဥပဌာနံအနု ကမၼာ

Article(s): Indian Premier League and Champions League Twenty20
Request: Redraw as SVG.-- Kkm010 | Talk with me 12:51, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
There's a discussion right now on the talk page about requests similar to this. No consensus has been reached on wording as yet, but since you are posting a number of requests of this nature, I'll post the latest proposed text here for you to have a look at. The discussion is at this link....
The vector versions of non-free images like company logos and other items need careful handling. Graphists at the lab cannot always convert a raster file (JPEG, GIF or PNG) to SVG. A manual re-draw of the logo is likely to result in an inaccurate version of the logo and this may lead to copyright violation! Thus, searching for an official version of the vector image is very important. Often, the vector version of a company logo is posted on the company's website such as an SVG, AI, CDR or EPS file. In other instances, vector logos can be found embedded within PDF documents since PDFs support vector graphics. Using the advanced search option in Google, can help finding PDF documents (Use the "File type" and "Search within a site or domain" tools). To confirm the presence of a vector logo in a PDF file, zoom several times into the logo and check for the absence of pixels. Upon finding a PDF with vector logo, use a vector graphic editor such as Inkscape to extract the vector file from the PDF source. If you do not know how to do this using a vector graphic editor, make a request here at the lab and include the URL of the PDF source or other vector source. A graphist will assist you in the process.

The second logo cannot be converted by hand and maintain its integrity. I would also note that that is an outdated logo, a 2010 version uses the color of the South African flag instead of the Indian one.

Graphist opinion(s):
Whilst this could have been redrawn, it's far preferable to use an official version if available. I didn't think I was going to be able to find one, because the first 15 or 20 pdfs I looked at all had low quality bitmaps in them. However, finally I found it in a document from their design faculty: http://www.symbiosisdesign.ac.in/pdf/Programme_Structure_PD.pdf - it's slightly different to the one you posted (doesn't have the parentheses around "deemed university" (which is also not all caps) or the ©) but it is from an official document, so I uploaded as is. It's possibly worth actually emailing them to ask if they have an official vector version we should use. Begoon• talk 13:59, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

The part that takes the longest time of making an SVG of a company logo is that is has to be issued by the company...and these vector logos can take a long time to find. It would be VERY helpful if you added links to PDFs that have the vector embedded in them as I did in the collapsed part of the section above.

Graphist opinion(s):
There's a discussion right now on the talk page about requests similar to this. No consensus has been reached on wording as yet, but since you are posting a number of requests of this nature, I'll post the latest proposed text here for you to have a look at. The discussion is at this link....
The vector versions of non-free images like company logos and other items need careful handling. Graphists at the lab cannot always convert a raster file (JPEG, GIF or PNG) to SVG. A manual re-draw of the logo is likely to result in an inaccurate version of the logo and this may lead to copyright violation! Thus, searching for an official version of the vector image is very important. Often, the vector version of a company logo is posted on the company's website such as an SVG, AI, CDR or EPS file. In other instances, vector logos can be found embedded within PDF documents since PDFs support vector graphics. Using the advanced search option in Google, can help finding PDF documents (Use the "File type" and "Search within a site or domain" tools). To confirm the presence of a vector logo in a PDF file, zoom several times into the logo and check for the absence of pixels. Upon finding a PDF with vector logo, use a vector graphic editor such as Inkscape to extract the vector file from the PDF source. If you do not know how to do this using a vector graphic editor, make a request here at the lab and include the URL of the PDF source or other vector source. A graphist will assist you in the process.

The second logo cannot be converted by hand and maintain its integrity. I would also note that that is an outdated logo, a 2010 version uses the color of the South African flag instead of the Indian one.

Graphist opinion(s):
Whilst this could have been redrawn, it's far preferable to use an official version if available. I didn't think I was going to be able to find one, because the first 15 or 20 pdfs I looked at all had low quality bitmaps in them. However, finally I found it in a document from their design faculty: http://www.symbiosisdesign.ac.in/pdf/Programme_Structure_PD.pdf - it's slightly different to the one you posted (doesn't have the parentheses around "deemed university" (which is also not all caps) or the ©) but it is from an official document, so I uploaded as is. It's possibly worth actually emailing them to ask if they have an official vector version we should use. Begoon• talk 13:59, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

The part that takes the longest time of making an SVG of a company logo is that is has to be issued by the company...and these vector logos can take a long time to find. It would be VERY helpful if you added links to PDFs that have the vector embedded in them as I did in the collapsed part of the section above.
