When determining the parameters for arcing, it is helpful to think of a circle
with the text going around the circle. We need to place the circle on our
plate in a certain area.
X Center: This number will determine where the arc is from left to right on
our plate. It is calculated from the left side of our plate.
Y Center: This number will determine where the arc is from top to bottom
on our plate. It is calculated from the top of our plate.
Note: The X & Y centers are the points of rotation of the arc. If
the wrong numbers are entered, the text can actually be off of the plate.
Arc radius: This number will determine the radius of the arc. The radius is
measured from the center point of the arc (X & Y Center) to the inside of
the text. The larger the number is, the larger the arc will be.
Start angle: This number will determine the degree amount that the arc will
start.
