  Tape that pic to a window or light table.
  Take a piece of tracing paper.
  Tape it over the picture and trace it.
  Scan into your sign program and clean it.

  There you are! 15 minutes tops.

  Hi Jill
  thanks for the tip
  I did trace this just to get a design complete to see how it looks but the women that did this is not happy with it as the letters are not the same size, we just wanted a font that looked much the same and i could play about with it to make it look close, this drawing was just done to show how she wanted things to look

  any other ideas
  thanks rich

  Rich, ‘Snap ITC’ may well be workable.
