Hmmm. I'd have to say Vector Magic would win. Nice and easy. Pretty clean. Good enough I'll bet.

That depends on your needs. If you're looking for crisp clean exact type then you may need to re-draw by hand or find the actual type. For that, what was supplied, it looked like a pretty good job and would more tan likely be acceptable to the customer.

Post by: tpitman on August 03, 2011, 05:26:24 AM: Dan is right about autotracing text, unless it's a "handwritten" style. I've found on more than one occasion that it takes me more time rooting through the various font download sites than it ended up taking to redraw the damn thing to begin with, which I had to do anyway after not finding the fonts.
