Title: Printing Artwork
Post by: WindyM on August 20, 2004, 03:10:20 pm

A lot of posts talk about professionally printed graphics which are not cheap. In these days of photo quality printers, is it feasible to print your own high quality side panel artwork or control panel graphics  on clear transparency acetate, waterslide decal paper (e.g. http://www.craftycomputerpaper.co.uk/white%20water-slip%20decals.htm), or other appropriate paper

What works? The decal paper above looks excellent in principle.

Is there any info or URLs pointing me to further info?

Thanks

Very informative. I am reminded, however, of the thread about which graphics programs to use. If you use Illustrator, it can automatically print out on multiple pages and take care of the border issue. At least it used to do this.
