    Default block fonts!!!

    I have a job to cut some large letters. can anyone give me some pointers on this. I've seen individual letters that are wide and that can be cut to fit on buildings. I appreciate any help.

    I guess I should have said, can anyone give me the name of different fonts that I may can use.

    Times New is also a good font if you are looking for something formal

    The fonts selected are also tied to the material you are using. The more stable the material the more ornate the font can be. Flimsy or lightweight material needs bolder/wider/flatter fonts. Russ
