thank you sooo much! The red acrylic is for the color intensity, right? Is there a significant cost difference when you use all polycarb? What kind of trimcaps do you use?

Hi all! I'm trying to find a good rule of thumb on when to default to polycarbonate faces and f-retainers versus acrylic and jewelite, beyond the general rule of 3-4' letter height. Can anyone share knowledge or experiences that influence your decisions on when to spec either of these? Thank...

This one is stumping me this morning and I feel like it should be easy? Hope it is for someone else!

Hi folks! Hoping someone can help me out with what I feel should be a fairly simple thing but it's stumping me. I'm trying to produce art for 300+ apartment unit numbers that will be reverse printed and applied 2nd surface. I've done a lot of digital printing but never had a job using this many...
