Hi,I am working with a designer on a new logo.What formats should i request the logo in to ensure have everything covered in the future
ie high resolution for printing,format suitable for a website,format suitable if getting jackets etc with embroidery,format that you would need for putting branding on company vehicles?

Pixelcraft

a vector format, either eps, ai, or pdf. That way it will scale to whatever resolution is required.

As well as all the hi-res designer stuff you'll also want JPGs or GIFs in Small, Med and Large for word documents, powerpoint, websites etc.

Unless you have designer type expertise and software, you wont be able to use AI or Vector EPS files

True, but it's always important to get them off the designers for future use. Especially if he's looking for printing, etc later on.

Clarissa, hows about these,
˗ .jpg (ideal for web use and on Microsoft products);
˗ .gif/.png (transparent background ideal for web use);
˗ .eps (common for professional print);
˗ .ai or .cdr (source file, depending on programme created in);
˗ .tif (high res image for print purposes);
˗ .psd (Photoshop file);
˗ .ttf (the font files that were used in your design);
˗ Others include high res .pdf, .bmp and .jpg greyscale version suitable for faxing;
