6. STENCIL FONT SIGNAGE CONSTRUCTION

a. Exterior Building sign ONLY has a white outline around each of the stencil letters.

i. The white outline may not be readily apparent in the .png file (as the .png background is transparent) therefore it is VERY important to use the Adobe Illustrator (vector) file when designing the exterior sign.

ii. The example below shows the contents of the exterior signage Vet Center logo in Adobe Illustrator with the white outlines shown. The artboard within the file was changed to black to highlight the white outline.

b. Each element of the channel lettering should mimic the stencil-font appearance.

i. For example, the V letter should be composed of two separate pieces: the angled stencil-stroke on the left and then a separate right-angled stencil-stroke on the right.
