Richard,

I appreciate your comment, but you're reading way to much into my one comment about "the very best quality thermography" -- which I assume would be simple, one color, and type only job -- carefully produced. No mixed media, multicolor, very fine line or large color areas. It still would not be my particular choice, but I mention that process as a possible option.

And no reason why doctors and accountants have to have thermography other than there are a lot of ads offering a bunch of black thermographed cards for a bargain price. 

      use/abuse of drop shadows since ID was introduced




Drop shadows were already old hat with paste-up mechanicals in the '80s, long before digital technology.

Not sure what your reference is for genuine engraving. 

      Other than contractors who come off the street and want to spend less
      than $50




They won't pay my prices, so it's not a problem. <g>

Neil
