Bumper sticker maker
A bumper sticker is read at 10 metres by someone who is also driving, so it lives or dies on contrast and brevity. The template is the standard 11.5 × 3 inch strip with tall condensed capitals on black.

Tips that make it print well
- Keep it under about 7 words. Tall condensed fonts like Bebas fit the most letters at a readable height.
- Use maximum contrast: yellow or white on black, or black on yellow.
- Print on outdoor vinyl with UV laminate. Inkjet sticker paper fades and peels in a few weeks outside.
- Check local rules before sticking anything on windows; some places restrict window decals.

Only on waterproof printable vinyl with a clear laminate over it, and even then expect months, not years. For long life, order solvent-printed vinyl from a print shop using your 300 DPI PNG.
