Made a UV print mistake with my Tayda order

Hey guys,
I made a mistake with my Tayda UV print, which I realized, when everything is done. The package is not a my home right now.
Here is the thing. I forget to vectorize some text parts on my pedal.
Does anyone know how it will turn out?
 
Sometimes if text isn’t vectorized on final render it can do some unpredictable things like disappear, become large, get small, move orientation or nothing at all depending on what was going on and the vector program you used. There’s a learning curve to these things mess ups happen you just have to take it on the chin and try again.
 
thank you !
I will see. First time after 30 orders this happened.
It is, what it is. Can’t do anything right now. Will look how it turned out and if it’s too bad I reorder.
 
What font was it? That seems to be the major variable. (Not speaking from Tayda experience, but as someone that produced output for graphic designers for many years.) @Paradox916 has the correct answer. Even super popular fonts like Helvetica have many variants, both in letters and kerning, so if a client didn’t outline fonts before they sent me a file, my version of the font might have been slightly different than their version.

If it’s an unusual font, they may not have a copy of it, and then it either gets omitted, or a generic font gets substituted. Sometimes, when I’d open a file, I’d get a good laugh.
 
When did you submit the order? I would message tayda to cancel the order if it hasn’t started. They are pretty good about doing that

It's too late, it's already done. I realised it, when I use the PDF as template for another pedal. At this time, everything was done.
 
Maybe you could send the print file together with an enclosure final result photo, it may avoid this kind of mistake in future.
Hope it's not too bad, you could still use them.
 
I will see. I already made a new pdf and corrected my mistake. So I will see how it turns out and then decide if I order new or don’t care.
 
Some call them B-Stock, I call them "unique" and "one-off", sell them twice the price by enabling the FOMO :LOL:
In all seriousness, it happened to me before and I got generic font instead of the one I had (Montserrat), it was not too bad and I still have them at home for lending to people to try out or crash testing. Hope yours shows up fine, keep us posted!
 
Turns out, I got luck.
Tayda printed the text under the potentiometer.
