Recreating the Perfect Match: Our Additional Inscription Process

When you need to add a new inscription to an existing family memorial, ensuring an exact match in font, spacing, and depth is our highest priority. We can recreate lettering perfectly using just a few photos and a paper rubbing.

Here is exactly how we transform your files into a flawless, lasting tribute:

  1. Image Analysis & Alignment:
    Our design team analyses your photos to determine the letter styles and outline detail. We use your paper or scanned rubbing to establish a 1:1 physical scale, ensuring the new text perfectly aligns with the original layout.
  2. Digital Letter Restoration:
    Using specialized software and digital drawing tools, we trace the unique geometry of the existing lettering. Because many older headstones feature hand-carved or discontinued fonts, we digitally reconstruct the characters stroke-by-stroke to guarantee an identical match.
  3. Client Proof & Approval:
    We generate a digital blueprint showing exactly how the new inscription will look alongside the original text. We will the explicit approval from you before the next step.
  4. Precision Inscription:
    Once approved, we create a custom digital or physical stencil ready to send to you.

Tip for the best results: When taking photos for us, try to snap one straight-on in diffused light (like an overcast day) to minimize harsh shadows.
