I can't seem to find anything that matches the font for CSI and RCI. 1300 fonts but not this one...... These are scanned from a t-shirt so the quality isn't the greatest. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Howdy!

Looks a lot like Optima to me.

Have a great one!

Optima with square dots on the i's!

Sorry Guys, but that is not Optima. There is no concave aspect to the downstrokes- a very distinctive feature of the typeface.

Looks like Castle Bold to me.

doh!

Did notice that, honest! thought it may heve just been an altered optima. Don't have castle so i bow to your superior knowledge [Smile]

Mike,
You may want to post the pics in the "alt.binaries.fonts" newsgroup.

Message header should read "Font ID and REQ Please"

In most cases, this will get you the font ID and
someone will upload the font for you to download.
Really terrific group of people in this newsgroup.

Mike:
if you are just trying to re-create the logo this is what I'd do...
Assuming you use flexisign, import the bitmap/picture. Choose the "create path" tool. Click your way around each font (over top). It's boring, but the fastest way to deal with the lousy image, (I tried flexi clor scan on it, too jagged). I'm sure you can do this in corel also. T-shirts photo copy also, (results in better image). brian c
