    It’d be quicker and probably easier to 3d print a set of custom stamps, and use that.

    Alternatively, a stencil and spray paint will never leave you with these problems. You’ll just have to severely limit the size of your “flier”. That, and being careful about how you buy your spray paint.

        You could still use your plotter to make a stencil. Get a sheet of cardboard/plastic/thin wood, have it plot your design, and then manually cut out the lettering/symbols/etc.

        Been planning to do basically that with mine for a while now.

          I’ve made stencils before, but I was wanting a decent pasteup option too, just because they’re faster to put up and less sus than spray paint. Maybe leave a tiled flier design to run overnight and then cut it apart or something.
