Layout
The signs are 25cm high by 35cm wide and are printed on 2mm Stainless Steel.
- The Friends of Toowong Cemetery logo is in the bottom left corner.
- The grave location is in the bottom right corner.
- An image, if available, is on the right of the text and masked in an oval.
- The right edge of the text should follow the curve of the oval image.
- The rounded rectangle border is inset ~10mm from the edge of the sign.
- Despite the surface of the support the sign is attached to having holes to attach the sign, most signs are glued to the supporting surface.
