Personalization
Signs & Personalized Pieces
Custom signs and personalized pieces should be designed around the message, viewing context, dimensions, display method, and artwork or wording the customer is authorized to use.
Start with what needs to be seen
Supply the wording exactly as intended and explain where the piece will be viewed. Viewing distance, available space, contrast, and the amount of text all affect readability. A sign for a wall, desk, display case, or event may need a different layout.
Define how it will be displayed
Explain whether the piece will stand on its own, hang, mount, sit on a surface, or fit inside another object. Mounting holes, bases, wall thickness, and clearances should be part of the design rather than an afterthought.
Personal details need exact approval
Names, dates, short messages, and other customized text should be reviewed for spelling, capitalization, placement, and legibility before production. Changes after approval may require a revised design or print.
Artwork and logos must be authorized
Customer-supplied graphics should be original, properly licensed, customer-owned, or otherwise legally permissible for the requested use. The ability to find or download an image does not automatically establish the right to reproduce it.
