    thanks for helping one looks like impress but not quite the same
    i played about with arial black and its close but not right

    why is it on these jobs ist the ones you need to get it back to them the next day

    fonts are nice when you can choose which ones to use and a pain in the rear when they need to be matched 😥

    Try Helvetica bold italic, if running Signlab (HeavyKI) for the bottom image, will have a quick look for the top one.
