I have a few sponsor logos in png format with transparent backgrounds. How do I get these into an ArcPro map layout with the backgrounds still transparent? I am trying to overlay the logos on the map frame, somewhere in Lake Superior.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I resolved this by using the Insert tool in the ribbon, in the same box as inserting other objects such as text boxes or shape, there's also an option to insert a picture. It's the box to the left of Dynamic Text, where all the other map items are, like scale bar and legend. Seemed to work for png and svg, not sure if I did a jpeg. I had been simply copy-pasting them into the layout.
try jpeg as noted here
