I can see what you mean by looking at that help page, but I still don't see
any option available when trying to upload a picture. I've tried out all
printing technique options, and it still restricts me to the same 4 raster
formats. It also doesn't show up any svg or eps files in the file explorer,
only png, jpg, gif or bmp. :( I'm not sure how to upload vector graphics
using their designer application.
