Purely coincidence but... Today a draftsman was showing me something which may be applicable to this problem. It seems that draftsmen use something which is like rub-off letters but it is produced by a copying machine (never say Xerox unless you want a nasty letter like I got before). In order to facilitate their work, they can do pieces of the drawing on regular paper, copy them onto this stuff, and then do rub-off transfers onto a single mylar sheet creating the single, finished, drawing. So, perhaps the answer is to laser print whatever you want, copy it onto this stuff, and then rub it off onto the panel. I do not know what it is called off hand but it is about $20.00 for a box of 100 8.5"x11" sheets here in S.C. and it is available at blueprint supply houses. peter hoffman peter@epoch.geol.scarolina.edu
