Q?
How do I determine the size of my lettering? |
|
|
A!
The size of your vinyl lettering depends on several factors such
as the
space available, the number of letters
in the name, and font
style used. To get the best possible
fit, we suggest you
obtain an accurate measurement of the area where the lettering
will go. Here are some guidelines to help you achieve the
maximum impact for your lettering:
Height:
The total height of your lettering is measured
from the top of the tallest letter to the bottom of the lowest
letter (including descending characters like g, y or j), plus the
shadow if selected. For example, if you order a 6 inch boat name with
a lower case "y" or "g", the capital letters will be less than 6
inches. To see an example click here.
Also, keep in mind that the further away you get from the boat the smaller the
lettering will appear. For maximum visibility, we suggest you get the largest
lettering that will fit within the available space on
your boat.
Length:
This is the maximum length the boat name can be. Please note:
we do not stretch the name to the maximum length, however, we
may condense it slightly if the actual length of the name exceeds the
length you specify.
Transom: measure the available width and subtract
at least 2 inches (1 inch on either side).
Sides: The average length for the sides of most boats 25' and under
is between 36 and 60 inches. Boats larger than 25' can be
longer. NOTE: The maximum length we can provide in one piece is
99 inches.
