Subject: Re: [motm] Front panel graphic

Hi Ivan,

I don't actually know this "pressure sensitive pouch film" you mention (more
please?), but my main problem has been finding a WHITE lettering for such
labels since most printers use the white = absence of any color (i.e., let
the paper show through). I will check on the site you mention to see however,
thanks. One other suggestion: drill your holes before you apply your label.
I've ruined a few good labels by drilling into panels which I'd already
applied labels to -- the chips came up and got between the panel and the
label.
