Yes you would require a vinyl plotter for complex designs, anything simple can be done by hand.

so in a c U s t om build i am doing i am having a fun time with acrylic and vinyl, but..

 

i saw in a video where someone maybe used vinyl (or paper idk) and had a image/print on it and used tape to pull it off then put it on acrylic

 

how would i go about doing this? wasn't very specific

What he's using is transfer tape, it's very useful for complex vinyl designs that allow you to take a cut design and transfer over toy your part instead of trying to line up and stick each and every portion. The design is not printed but cut on a vinyl plotter before remove the excess leaving you with your design that then requires the transfer tape.
