hey Brandon, i like using mircosoft excel

once i find the sign i like i open up an excell book and hit "insert picture"

then i go to format and hit resize, it will tell you exactly how big the final product will be

(its helped me so much with printing decals, no more guessing and running 17 testprints to get one right)

You can pick from signs already made or with some, make your own custom sign. You can save them to your computer and resize to whatever scale you wish. Here is one I made for the back of a custom tractor trailer and have test printed it scaled down, I just have never made the final decal yet.

Yes, printminis is a great resource, but you can also clip them off GOOGLE IMAGE and cut and paste them to your word processor and shrink them to scale from there.

I've done the same thing but I use tables in Word instead of Excel.
