We use regular banner tape, and we sometimes double hem if extra strength is needed.

Old post, but we've been using the Monotype subscription for almost a year now and we love it. It has most of the classics that we use every day, like Helvetica, Univers, Franklin, and thousands of others. Between the Monotype subscription, Typekit and Google Fonts, we rarely need to buy...

1. If clients give you files and you print/fabricate them, you need to have the latest software for file compatibility. Buying the software once and using it for a "lifetime" is not practical at all. It will cause endless headaches—speaking from experience of our shop waiting too long to upgrade...

Looks like Trajan

That probably only works in the southern hemisphere.

The sad thing is that I guessed that one off the top of my head! I don't think I've ever even used it before.

It can, but that depends on what colour you paint it, how much direct sun it gets, the thickness of the PVC, and the density of the foam. Thick, dense PVC is often used for outdoor signs and doesn't usually warp noticeably unless you paint it black.

Garamond Swash Italic?

This particular style of font is a massive fad that I really hope ends soon. It's basically an entire genre of fonts targeted for people who blog about avocados and chia seeds.

It'll probably be somewhere on here if you want to browse for it: Script Fonts ~ Creative Market

Based on previous requests I've seen here, apparently fire truck fonts are not publicly available for purchase. You'll probably have to trace it yourself or find some special fire truck font company to set the type for you.

Excellent advice :D And with JR's comment in mind, it's awesome that you're learning to edit the letterforms in the type for your logo designs, but it's really obvious that you don't know what you're doing. The edits you made look awful. Keep learning, but don't make edits like this in a logo...

I don't know if this helps, but it sounds like you think that spot colours can't be used for gradients. They certainly can—you just have to have the same spot colour on both ends, which it seems would be useful to you in this case. For example, if you want a gradient from Roland BK12 (medium...

Hahaha I was just about to post this. It already looks a lot way too much like the Western Digital logo.

Well, if you can convince them to dump the crappy font and use something better, here's one that's pretty close but way nicer looking. Stratum 1 & 2 Font Family | Process Type Foundry

Well, if you have a graphic designer at your shop, I'd say it's generally their job to decide what fonts are appropriate, not the client's job. However, a font list might be good for B2C jobs like boat lettering. I would suggest typing out the name of the font and then all uppercase, lowercase...

I posted detailed instructions earlier in the thread. Which part are you having trouble with? Another easier way to do it would be to simply set the text in Photoshop and turn off antialiasing. It's the dropdown box right next to the point size - change it from "Sharp" to "None".
