i would just redraw all the text in this case, but my mouse went dead today, bought a new one and it’s orrible ! all over the place !! as this is gonna be 5m long on a banner, it needs to be acurately drawn or a font !

thanks in advance.

hmmm, initial searches have shown nowt…

dare i ask ???????????

😀 😀

ok, looks like this needs to be a ‘bought font’, cant find it anywhere for free anyways, and the Company who use it (big brewery) have only got it as the jpg, they would have surely ‘bought’ the right to use it in their logo ???….

so…..

am i being over cheeky in asking if anyone would pm me with an email addy, or email it to me for this use only ? 🙄

thank you Pete, I know i should do, but i didnt think i’d need to buy it, would just vector it normally, just my poxy mouse broke, or rather… i broke it ! replacement is awful, can barely conntrol tool on corel ! luckily i just picked up the exact same mouse as i broke for £4.99, cost £25 in non-pc world.

oh yeah, as this is for the young farmers ass’n, i’m decided to make a donation (a % of my fee ) to them towards funds. so anywhere i can save… anyways, thanks again !

Pete, i only have an ‘R’ !! not sure where the rest is ! perhaps if you make the image fit inside the a4 (or whatever) box, it will all come up, only an R is showing and it’s in the box !

make sense ?

Hugh, don’t know if it’s too late but I’ve only just managed to reduce the file size in illustrator CS, here’s a vector of the V part of the logo…hard to see the crown and martletts but it may help.
