NOTE: Both of these manuals were intentionally created using gray type (gray font color), in order to conserve expensive ink jet printer cartridges. Upon printing, you will not see the printed words in black, but in gray. We have only used black type in a few areas, where we wish to stress certain points.

Archer Livery Template (.psd)

This is what you will need to repaint the Archer using our new version of Text-o-Matic, which provides for alpha channel reflections.

This template is for the entire Archer aircraft, thus, you can not only repaint the exterior of the aircraft, but you can also repaint the interior, Virtual Cockpit, even change the color of the Virtual Cockpit's panel, and add a new registration number to it. You can also change the interior fabric, carpet, and the faces of the people in the aircraft. It's all here for you to have fun with!

This template is only available in Photoshop .psd format, and should work with Paint Shop Pro, or any graphics program that supports .psd documents (Photoshop documents).

Note: You do NOT need to add an alpha channel to this template, as this is done automatically by Text-o-Matic.
