+How do I add logos to my board?
+-------------------------------
+
+First make sure that the logo is in a vector format such as SVG, PDF or EPS.
+If that's not the case either try to obtain a vector version of the
+logo or trace it using Inkscape's "Trace bitmap" tool.
+
+Open the logo in Inkscape and convert it into a set of closed paths
+without holes that consist only of straight lines and no bezier curves.
+
+#. Use the Path → Object to Path tool to convert everything into paths.
+#. Remove any holes by either modifying the path or creating cut-ins with the Path → Difference tool.
+#. Remove all curved edges with the Extensions → Modify Path → Flatten  beziers tool.
+   Adjust the flatness for a good compromise between quality and number of points.
+
+Once that's done, export the document as a DXF file.
+
+Import that DXF into Horizon EDA with the "Import DXF" tool. Keep in
+mind that the scale or offset might be way off from what you need, so
+try zooming out if you're not seeing anything. Right now, everything's
+just a set of connected lines and not filled. Use the "Line loop to
+polygon" tool to convert the zero-width lines into filled polygons.
+Adjust the size to your need with the "Scale" tool.
+
+If you want to reuse your Logo on multiple boards, consider putting it
+into a decal in a pool. Compared to packages, decals have the advantage
+that they can be scaled as needed and aren't part of the netlist.
