i dont have signlab on this computer mate so doing this from memory…

type in your two lines of text using correct font.

go to "transform" then "Bounding box" then "arch" and it should be then "vertical" you select.

drag top and bottom lines to stretch the text to form the same appearance as you have in the picture and select OK or yes… whatever it says to confirm.

now apply an outline in… lets say yellow.

once created, click OFF the text and select the yellow outline only…

then go "transform" – "shadow"- "block" and drag the Shadow to the position of the shadow in picture.

now click OFF all and select the yellow outline again.

make the outline white. if it looks now like your picture. select the whole thing and go to the weld function in the toolbar on the left and select the first weld option. this will remove the white layer completely leaving only the text and the shadwo area required.

hope i have that right… if not its not Far out i dont think… so a few minor tweaks here and there.
