FYI:
Depending on the size of your logos, you might want to increase the size of media uploads in your php.ini file.

Configuring the Store Logos
When updating or uploading these logos, make sure you use the correct size as shown here in this Magento version 1.2 (200×50). If you don’t use this size, Magento will needlessly distort it to fit 200×50.
Invoice and Packing Slip logos were designed to be printed automatically , you can configure this automation and many other pdf automations by modifying the file located here: your_magento_install/ app/ code/ core/ Mage/ Sales/ Model/ Order/ Pdf/ Abstract.php
" Setting up the Logos in Magento "
I’ve been monkeying around with the abstract.php for the pdf invoice printout. WOW what a cumbersome mess! I’ve gotten the format to pretty close to where I want it to be but would like to increase the size of my logo. It’s pulling what’s loaded on the back end but it just prints out too small. Any suggestions?
Thank you.
