600 mm by 300 mm (24 in by 12 in) alt plate, made to the specifications of the 2004 edition of Standard Highway Signs (sign M4-1a). Uses the Roadgeek 2005 fonts. (United States law does not permit the copyrighting of typeface designs, and the fonts are meant to be copies of a U.S. Government-produced work anyway.) The outside border has a width of 1 (1 mm) and a colour of black so it shows up; in reality, signs have no outside border.
