Yes, the supplier wasn't proficient in design software. He merely did sales. Some of the options I wanted to test: -Alpha Channel in Photoshop saved as a targa -Gradient mesh overlay -live paint or live trace

I have a feeling there might be a work around, as the sign supplier I visited had some promotional material from Roland, and there was an example from Roland with a photo similar to the examples I showed you (from Roland) and it had this technique applied to it perfectly.
