I'm looking to design my friends tradeshow booth and was thinking it would be fun to use some large type. Anyone have experience with this. He needs to ship it all in a container to the shows, so it would almost have to be collapsable. Muchos Gracias.

so by large type you mean 3d-cut out stuff? otherwise it's just a design on a display skin as-per any other design you'd use?

Yeah, I was thinking large (3-6 foot letters) and having the 10' x 20' booth read all the way across.

Check with the manufacturer/printer on the location of the booth panels first, you might not get the entire width to play with. Here's an example of one I did recently (10'x40')...
Three central panels, two lightboxes and the rest is vinyl on panels.

That looks good 5timuli. My initial thought is to build the letters out of pegboard so it is light. It should be able to hang on his structure without a problem. It's the cutting i am worried about.
This is kind of what I was thinking, but on a smaller scale.
It's the Revolution Lounge in the Mirage, Las Vegas (just in case the link is too long.
