Graffiti Letter Generator
Type a tag or a name, pick a street-style font, and get it with a fat outline and a drop shadow — as a layered SVG, a PNG, or pages to print.

Loading the font…
Everything is made in your browser; nothing is uploaded. SVG paths are calculated from the font outlines; we haven't cut them on a physical machine.
Printable graffiti alphabet
Every letter on its own page, as big as the page allows, in Sedgwick Ave Display with the outline thickness and colors set above. Paper size and print style come from the settings above, too.
Printing a graffiti poster
Pick the route by how big the finished piece should be:
- Up to a page: “Printable PDF (whole phrase)” fits the design on one US Letter or A4 sheet and turns the page sideways for long words.
- Bigger than a page, at home: “Printable PDF (one letter per page)” puts each letter on its own sheet. Trim the margins and tape the letters side by side, overlapping the shadows a little.
- Poster at a print shop: set “Finished width” to the poster width, then download the PNG. It is rendered at 300 pixels per inch of that width, up to 6,000 pixels — so anything wider than 20 inches gets proportionally fewer pixels per inch. For very large prints, ask whether the shop accepts SVG: it is vector, so it has no resolution limit.
In the print dialog choose 100% or “Actual size”, not “Fit to page”. “Outline only” prints black contours without the shadow — cheap on ink and good for coloring in. “Filled” prints your colors; the whole-phrase PDF also includes the shadow.
Making a stencil from the letters
- Print the alphabet or your word with Outline only, one letter per page.
- Fix the sheet to cardstock or stencil film and cut along the outer line with a craft knife on a cutting mat.
- Watch the enclosed shapes — the middle of A, B, D, O, P, Q and R. They fall out when cut, so leave two or three thin uncut bridges to hold them, or paint them in by hand afterwards.
Stencil letters are sturdier when you cut the outline shape rather than the thin letter strokes: set the print style to “Filled”, make the letters the same color as the outline, and you get one bold silhouette per letter to trace. If you want letters that are designed with bridges already, look at stencil fonts on Creative Fabrica.

Cutting it in vinyl or cardstock
The SVG stacks three shapes, bottom to top: Shadow, Outline and Lettering. Each is a separate layer with its own color, so a three-color decal is three cuts that you layer on top of each other. Cricut Design Space reads every shape in an uploaded SVG as a cut line and keeps the size saved in the file.

Upload it with Upload → Upload Image. The layers arrive grouped; ungroup them to resize or recolor one layer on its own.

Calculated, not machine-tested The shapes come straight from the font outlines and a traced offset for the outline layer. No machine was used to check them, so do a small test cut first.
Which font for which job
Pieces matter for cutting: a letter that splits into several parts means more weeding and more bits to place. The last column was calculated from each font's capitals with the same code the generator uses.
| Font | Look | License | Capitals that cut as more than one piece |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sedgwick Ave Display | Hand-drawn marker tag, slanted and loose | SIL OFL 1.1 | I |
| Permanent Marker | Felt-tip marker capitals | Apache 2.0 | None |
| Rubik Spray Paint | Chunky letters with sprayed, speckled edges | SIL OFL 1.1 | L P Q R U V W Z |
| Rubik Wet Paint | Chunky letters with paint drips | SIL OFL 1.1 | A C G H I R T X |
| Bungee Shade | Block capitals with built-in 3D shading | SIL OFL 1.1 | Almost all (26 of 26) |
Bungee Shade's shading is part of every letter, which is why nearly all of them come in several pieces — lovely printed, fiddly in vinyl. For cutting, Permanent Marker and Sedgwick Ave Display are the simplest.
All five fonts come from the Google Fonts collection under the SIL Open Font License or the Apache License 2.0, so you can use them on shirts, decals and prints you sell; you can't sell the font files themselves. Other fonts have their own terms — font licenses for sellers explains the usual ones, and the font license checker reads what a font file says about itself.

Not legal advice: read the font’s own license before you sell.
