How do I remove the white background from a logo in Illustrator?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 6:46 pm

When working with logos in Adobe Illustrator, it’s often necessary to remove the white background from the logo. There are a few methods that can be used to achieve this:

1. Use the Background Eraser tool.

This tool can be found in the Tools panel and is used to remove the background of objects.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful when removing the white background from a logo in Illustrator, you could end up with a logo that has a transparent background. This could cause problems if you try to use the logo on a webpage or in another document, as the background will show through.

2. Use the Gradient tool to create a gradient fill and then use the Eraser tool to remove the gradient.

3. Use the Clone Stamp tool to create a copy of the logo and then use the Eraser tool to remove the original logo.

4. Use the Magic Wand tool to select the entire logo and then use the Eraser tool to remove the white background.

5. Use the Levels tool to adjust the brightness and contrast of the logo until the white background is completely removed.
