Hello All,

I am looking for some sort of Guideline/Procedure for Text Spacing on Overhead Signs. I know that SignCAD does this, but recently I have had some signs to be looked at again because of spacing issues, issues that I thought SignCAD would fix, but like any other computer program, it has its drawbacks. Any guidance would be apprciated. Thanks.
 
the MUTCD should give guidance on what text size/spacing is appropriate.
 
In Canada, the TAC - Uniform Traffic Control Devices would be a good start. Many competant sign manufacturors will also be able to provide you with some advice (such as Hi-signs and Alberta Traffic Supply).
