PDF Signs
« on: October 30, 2012, 12:18:05 »
Inspired by another thread...

I've started dabbling with a few PDF signs for customizing Playmobil buildings. When I have a few more, I will group them into sheets for easier printing. There doesn't seem to be any way to send large files through PlaymoFriends, but I can email them upon request.

Thanks to Rasputin for providing some western measurements!  :)

Suggestions are welcome, though I may need measurements if they are for parts that I don't have and for which I have no measurements.

The fine print:
You may use these for personal use, but please don't sell them in any form because (1) It wouldn't be fair for someone to pay for something they should have gotten for free. (2) Certain fonts may require a license for commercial use if projects using them are distributed to other people. [I purchased some fonts for commercial use awhile back, and I'll probably be using a combination of these fonts and free fonts.]

Great idea!!!

Will you make one that could fit the triangular sign that comes with the Bank?  ;D ;D ;D ;D That would be awesome!

I could, but I don't have measurements for that sign yet.

You'll have to take that up with Playmobil. The name comes from the Victorian photographer's case.

They look excellent, just the job.

I could meassure it later when I'm home, if some doesn't do it before that  :)

They look great and I intend on using them. I too have the problem of not wanting to remove the stock sticker so I will just cover them so I do not damage them. I will print them on harder paper, maybe photo paper and use removable double sided tape  ;)

I did forget to measure the other signs. The green triangle sheriffs office 3786, the gold nugget 3787, the new take-along 4398, and I do not have the old bank or the new fort.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:
