    That's close to brush script, I carve that a lot and it comes out nice with centerline. Or are you wanting to import that in?

    If you have designer 3.0 you could use v-carve. The effect is similar to centerline but you don't need have or to convert it to a font. If you trace the edges of the script in vectors then the v-carve will use the v bit. If you want to make it very large then the raster carve Suzanne posted is probably your best bet.

    I thought I could find it on here under Software > 3rd Party Software, but can't.

    What was that website that you could post a QUALITY photo of some text and the site would identify it?

ID:	77673. I usually monkey around with software until I figure out a work around to get something near what I'm trying to accomplish. I thought I would try to save some frustration and ask the forum for ideas. thanks again for the responses.

    Dan,

    Thanks for the new font! I had not seen one with the long swishes

    Robert, If no one else has done it by the time I get home, I will do it in corel. Do you have the dxf importer add on??
