Question

How do I setup my Barricade Tape file?

Answer

All Barricade Tape files must be built as vector art in a vector-based program such as Adobe Illustrator. There are no exceptions, because the artwork prints as a continuous repeat along the length of the spool and needs to scale cleanly.

  • Create your design in a vector program like Illustrator.
  • Convert all text to outlines so fonts render correctly.
  • Avoid placed raster images such as JPEGs or PNGs, which will not print sharply.
  • Keep your artwork within the printable tape height, either 3 inches or 6 inches.
