Offer logo | The logo will appear on the marketplace search results and on your offer's storefront page. Upload the large size logo in .png format with dimensions between 216 pixels x 216 pixels and 350 pixels x 350 pixels. The system will automatically resize your original large logo to the other required sizes. |
Structure:
- If you include any text in your logo, it should be readable.
- Your logo should be designed and optimized for a digital medium, not a traditional print based logo.
- Monitors emit light and paper absorbs light.
- Color calibration across devices can affect the look and feel of your app:
- All colors can be achieved by merging RGB (red, green, and blue) light, but monitors display only a limited range of the visible spectrum at a lowmedium resolution, usually 72-75 dots per inch.
- Print production usually requires a four-color process CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) in high resolution of at least 300 dpi.

Supporting documents | Add supporting sales and marketing assets such as white papers, brochures, checklists, or PowerPoint presentations. In this way, you enable prospects to learn more about your offer. |
Structure:
- A minimum of one document is required (up to a maximum of 3 are allowed).
- We recommend you to add the link to your app landing page to all your documents.
- Think wisely about what content you include in the learn more section. Don't sell, educate the prospect.
- Don't just include a description of your offer here – the prospect has already read the description in the store front details in AppSource and has shown an interest in your offering by clicking on the learn more item – don't discourage this interest by repeating something that they already know.
- Instead, use this opportunity to show them something new that entices their interest to start using your offer even more.
- Remember that you are not allowed to include Microsoft Dynamics 365 logos or trademarks in your supporting documents.

- Use screenshots that includes realistic demo data and tell a compelling story
- Use visual images that highlights and demonstrates the key competitive differential between your product and others.
- Our brains love contrast, so use comparisons if you can (i.e. screenshots of "before" and "after" using your offer).
- Choose key visual elements to highlight rather than including a full screen of distracting, irrelevant content.
- Remember you are not allowed to include Microsoft Dynamics 365 logos or trademarks in your screenshots.
