General
Cast plaques are photographically reproduced from typeset letter styles. As a result of this technology, practically any letter style (or artwork) can be incorporated into a cast plaque.
Listed below are 36 standard letter styles most commonly used on plaques. Other fonts are available upon request through our graphics library.
Custom letter styles may also be provided for cast plaques.
Raised vs Recessed Graphics
The casting process creates plaques with 2 levels of graphics – raised and recessed. Graphic images are raised .100″ from the background texture.
Raised
Recessed
Letters can be recessed on a cast plaque if the stroke of the letters is at least 1/8″ at all points or serifs.
Example: Narrowest point on serif must be at least 1/8″
These plaques pictured above were made from the same artwork but the raised and recessed areas were interpreted differently.
