This might be a simple question but I'm new at printing artwork.
I have a small plastic replica of an arcade cabinet and I'd like to print some custom decals to stick to the sides/front of the case. To do this accurately and to scale I assume I'll need to first take accurate measurements of the dimensions, and then maybe plot these into a CAD program or even just Adobe Illustrator or something, but would appreciate some advice/wisdom on what software to use to best achieve this and then also how to make sure the artwork prints to the correct size/scale on my home inkjet printer?
Ideally I'd like to end up with some glossy decals that I can peel off and stick onto the case, but I don't know if my home inkjet printer will be able to print on that kind of sticker material.... But for now, any help with working out the size/scale problems and what design program(s) to use would be much appreciated.
