Jerry Bonham 1 Posted December 20, 2007 Hey, I was expecting something complex and difficult. This is the simplest shadow possible. How to do it 1. Type Text 2. Select Text 3. Click on Shadow tool 4. Right Click on screen 5. Choose Block Shadow 6. Move the outline to the left to emulate the one in the PDF file 7. Press select. All done/ Then undo and try perspective and move the shadow to different positions etc You will be amazed at the shadows you can produce. Then if you are the proud owner of SignBlazer Pro you can produce thousands of different shadow combinations. Jerry from SignBlazer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
