Memorial Lettering FAQs
Can I include a name and two dates?
Yes. Enter the correct details and consider separate designs to control the size of each line.
Is this suitable for a permanent gravestone inscription?
Do not assume ordinary cut vinyl is appropriate for permanent memorial stonework. Confirm material and surface compatibility first.
Can I choose discreet lettering?
Use a restrained font and preview the colour against the surface before ordering.
Can I choose the size?
Yes. Set the required width or height in millimetres in the lettering maker and review the proportions in the preview.
Does the background colour get printed?
No. The background option only simulates the surface behind your lettering.
