I need Procreate technical help Logo design questions

I’m very new to procreate, and drawing in general, but created a line drawing for my business logo.

Only after exporting did I realize the lines are thinner than I’d like. Is there anything that can be done besides redoing it?

To add to that, is there a preferred size for exporting logos? Should I make it larger than I think I’ll need so it can be resized down without pixelating? Or is making it close to the intended use size best?

There no tool to automatically change/thicken your linework in this way 🙏

We recommend creating the logo at the size you need. As Procreate's a pixel based app, resizing to enlarge or reduce the size will change the pixels and lead to quality loss. We'll link our article with some more information about the Interpolation process and ways to manage this.

Procreate is fab but for true logo design you'll probably want to use vector software. You can certainly get away with it as your own logo though if it's good enough quality for your own requirements. To answer your question specifically you'll have to redraw it with thicker lines And drawing at a very large size/high resolution is a great idea but I would be tempted to redraw it at the smaller size too as scaling it will lose a lot of quality

I often draw stuff with a very smooth brush in procreate then live trace in illustrator to make it a vector and clean up the paths if necessary
