You will want to install the provided fonts before proceeding to edit in Fireworks, if you wish to use the same font for your logo editing.

Editing in Adobe® Fireworks CS4

Step 1

Open the logo-source.png file in Adobe® Fireworks.

Focus on the right column, titled Layers. Select the Web layers directory and click the eye icon to the left of the logo slice (the green object). This will make the slice invisible so you can edit the file.

Double click on the logo text. Now you can edit the text of logo to your choosing.

Step 5

If you are new to Fireworks, you may be wondering why it appears that there is only one style variation in the source. This is not the case as we take advantage of the Frame features of Fireworks. You need to simply switch frames to see all the other style variation sources.

There are a few ways to change frames and we will show 2 methods that you can use.

In the right column where you find the Layers toolbar including the Web Layers area, you should see another tab/toolbar named Frames. Just left click on the title Frames to enter the frames area. Then you can click on either of the frames which are named to show which style variant is on that particular frame.

The second method is the easiest and simplest. At the bottom of the Fireworks canvas is a row of buttons and arrows. Select the arrows to switch between frames.

Uploading the changed files

Once you have successfully edited then exported your new logo, you will need to upload it to your server. This process is best done via a FTP client such as Filezilla

  1. Open your FTP client on your local computer.
  2. Login to your web server where Panacea is installed.
  3. Navigate to the /wp-content/themes/rt_panacea_wp/images/logo/{body-style}/ directory.
  4. Upload logo.png (and any other logo related images) to this directory (You may need to browse on the local panel in the FTP client to find where you have exported your logo).
  5. Clear your browser cache before viewing such as using the keyboard commands on Windows, Ctrl+F5.
Ensure that you are uploading the correct logo to avoid confusion if it does not change. Also take into account hosting permissions. Sometimes, hosts which are not designed for WordPress may have permissions not suited for the setup, thus, the upload will not be complete. In this case, contact your hosting provider.

Client Testimonials

Wonderful, friendly service. Thank you so much for looking after us!

Faye Chandler, Oliver Chandler Limited

I would gladly recommend Keeley to anybody who is looking for a conscientious, detailed and hard working accounting professional. Both individually, during her career before Magenta, and now as part of the wider Magenta Accounts team Keeley has looked after my financial well-being over the last fifteen years, and has done it exquisitely well. In fact, so happy am I to recommend Keeley, that four of my closest friends now have their company finances managed by Keeley's safe hands at Magenta.

Mike Boreham. Managing Director, Quiddity Solutions Limited

Magenta have handled our payroll and invoicing for three years, and have had an extremely positive impact on Semantic. Between them the team now handle all my personal and professional needs.

Nick Warren. Managing Director, Semantic Limited

Keeley has handled all my tax affairs for many years and I cannot speak highly enough about the professional level of service she has provided. Her efficiency and knowledge mean that my tax affairs are handled swiftly and competently making the whole experience pleasurable and cost effective.

Linda Green

Just a note to say how impressed I have been with Magenta Accounts and the service that you have provided me within my first 6 months of setting up my business. With being a new business, making sure I generate income immediately is vital, so by knowing that you are taking away of all my financial duties from me such as making small payments to providing monthly management accounts allows me to focus more of my time on other aspects such as growing the business and generating revenue. Each member of staff provides a personal and prompt service and it is comforting to know that whoever I speak to at Magenta Accounts, each member of staff is fully aware of my accounts and the current situation. I would fully recommend your company to any business who is looking for a service that not only helps take away the stress of looking after money, but also helps you grow as a business.

Michael Dyble, Managing Director, Dybles Limited

Keeley and her team are fantastic at providing the right advice, expert skills and taking the headache of accounting away from me, allowing me to spend more time on my business, not in it. Highly recommended local, friendly company.
