Do you have more or fewer trick or treaters? Seems like we get less and less every year. Plenty of kids in the neighborhood

probably not a font. The R's and o's don't match

sounds like it is converting the stroke into 2 shapes. An inner and outer that are .25 apart. No stroke and just a fill might fix that issue. Also try saving your vectors down to a version 8 ai or eps instead of the default

usually having multiple paths for the same shape is caused by having a stroke applied to shape in addition to the fill. Make sure your shapes are fill only and have no stroke applied to it

the first one looks like Eras and the other could be verdana or Tahoma

customer decided close was good enough... so for all those that tried, thank you. I guess this font eludes us all. Nothing has been a match so far. They ended up with Tulia as being ok for their needs

Crete, another nice guess but still not a match. From a quick look i see the C and R don't match

thanks for trying but it is definitely not Rockwell

one of my customers does scale lettering for old freight trains and locomotives so all the lettering was done pre digital. There are little or no matching fonts I work with a few shapes and build them

tried whatfontis and my findmyfont program with no luck.

i trace letters on a daily basis if I don't have/own the font or if it is custom

raster shadow effects generally don't import or open well if they were not created in Illustrator to begin with. Or if the customer saves down the file to an older Illustrator format it loses it's ability to be edited because newer effects are not compatible with older versions of the software...

Oh no so sad to read this. We had many conversations over the years via email and a couple of phone calls. He was always kind and professional. He will be missed

are you sure they created the file in illustrator? I have seen oddities from other programs that produce wonky PDFs. I have also never seen that outer box before and I have been using Illustrator since version 88

all your art guy did is change the soccer ball to white and added a black box behind it.

font is called cinzel

now it sounds like you want to add 6 mm around the whole existing lettering?? In that case you just use the offset command of 6mm away from the existing vector shapes object>path>offset path

pen

redraw the letters using a 6mm stroke. Use your original as a watermarked template in the background. That is all i did. Once you are done convert the stroke line into a shape. Not sure of the function name in corel Object>path>outline stroke is the function in Illustrator
