Journal of Design Proofs
How does the design process work when you order a sign from SignSpecialist.com? Below you will find our running journal of designs and sign specifications for Magnetic Signs, Banners, Yard Signs, Metal Signs, Temporary Signs, and Truck Lettering. These are actual orders from previous customers.
Our journal is updated daily with new designs. We only post in our journal the initial layout designed to the customers specifications. By the time the sign goes in production, many times, the design has changed dramatically from the initial proof you'll see below. Such is the nature of the design process. Never-the-less, this should give you a good feel as to how we and our customers design custom sign orders. If you have any questions, as usual, let us know - we'll be glad to help.

Hello. Thanks again for your ‘recent’ order. Attached you will notice a layout for your truck lettering idea. Let me know what you think.
Keep in mind monitors vary GREATLY in the way they display colors. If an exact color match is needed, samples can be mailed right out.
The size mentioned is a bit big for most trucks. It would be good for you to get exact door sizes and email them back. But, Tasha did mention it was for a ford. The fords have a body / molding line that gives a clean break between the main lettering and the ‘tag’ lettering at the bottom. With this much text, this would be a good way to break up the lettering a bit. (so the white space between the two sections represents the molding/body line)
Once we get the final ‘go ahead’ your truck lettering will mail within 1 working day. If you have any questions let me know.
Thanks

Hello. Thanks again for your recent order. Attached you will notice a layout for your min-van lettering idea. Let me know what you think.
Keep in mind monitors vary GREATLY in the way they display colors. If an exact color match is needed, samples can be mailed right out. I did not know the van color, so I guessed with black. But this should work for layout purposes.
On the first layout, I split the second line to 2 lines. This adds the height needed- working out to 12×22. The second layout works out to 9.5×22. Also, attached is a close-up of the detailed periods.
Once we get the final ‘go ahead’ your lettering will mail within 1 working days. If you have any questions let me know.
