True size, not a guess
The scale comes from a real measurement on the photo, so the sign is shown at the size it will be made.

Sign mockup software with true-size building mockups.
Show a client their sign on their own building at the real size, lit the way it will be lit, before anything is made. Then print the scale drawing for the shop and the landlord.
How it works
From site photo to scale drawing.
A mockup is a picture for approval, and its accuracy depends on the measurement you give it. Structural and electrical drawings still come from a qualified engineer where your project needs them.
- Add the building photoUse a photo from the site survey or one the client sends.
- Give one real measurementMark something you measured, such as a door width. SignAcctPro straightens the photo and sets the scale from it.
- Place the sign at true sizeSet the sign at its real dimensions and mounting height from the floor. Add several signs on one wall when the job needs it.
- Show day and eveningPreview front-lit, halo, edge-lit, lightbox and spotlight lighting in day and evening views.
- Send the proof and print the drawingSend the mockup as a proof the client signs online, and print a scale drawing PDF with dimensions, a scale bar and your title block.

Questions.
What is sign mockup software?
It is software that shows how a sign will look in place before it is made, usually on a photo of the building. SignAcctPro places the sign at true size using one real measurement from the photo.
Do I need Illustrator, CorelDRAW or Photoshop to make the mockup?
No. The mockup, the lighting views and the scale drawing are made inside SignAcctPro. You can still bring in artwork made elsewhere.
Can the client approve the mockup online?
Yes. Send it as a proof on a private link. The client ticks a checklist and signs, or asks for changes, and every version is kept.
Can I use the drawing for a sign permit?
The scale drawing shows dimensions, scale and your title block, which many permit offices ask for. Each city has its own rules, so check what yours requires.
