Last month I set and printed a “certificate of authenticity” that Lisa can attach to her relief prints. I’m happy with the result; it was a fiddly job.
One of the fiddlier fiddly parts was figuring out how to set the “fill in the blank” lines. What I ended up doing is using 2 point line rule, buttressed by 10 point slugs, which conveniently combined to match the 12 point Gill Sans.
The 10 point spacers, by the way, came from the old Prince County Hospital print shop; I store them now, as they did then, in medical specimen bottles.
