Simple letter model customisers now have an option to change the way height is calculated.

You have two options:

1. Dynamic - This is the default and is how the height is currently calculated. Height is determined based on the dimensions of characters and font selected.
2. Fixed - (New) You can specify in centimetres how tall each line will always be. This number gets multiplied by the number of lines of text entered.

A new pricing and sizing model has been introduced to accomidate new sign type we are introducing. This model focuses on the frame of a sign rather then the letters for all measurements and pricings calculations.
