Photoshop :: Font Matching For Custom Logo
Mar 4, 2009
I've just taken two decals off my mountain bike, not realizing that the frame had a lacquer coating on top of them. In case you're wondering why I did one and was then stupid enough to repeat my mistake, its one on either side of the frame .
I'm now been left with a large mark were there is no lacquer on either side. I've asked around and found that it can't be neatly covered without a complete respray. I have, however, found a local company who can make custom decals to put over it if I provide them with a design. So I've obtained a copy of Photoshop CS3 and tried to make my name in a similar font to the large manufacturer decal (which is still on the frame). I'm trying to get Chris on one side and Walker on the other with the same dimensions.

I want to create a logo. The word I am creating is going to be Foxx. I want the backside of the F to have a fox's head coming out of it. I want the appearance of the Fox's had to be growing from the back side of the F. I am capable of pulling this off. I am more interested in the techniques that some of you would use to acheive this task.
1.What I would do is find a picture of a fox's face in this case a profile shot.
2.I'd then import that pic and extract the head from the fox (only in the picture PETA )
3.I'd then use my combination of the pen tool, shape tool, and direct selection tool to trace the fox's face.
4.Finally I'd design the F to match the fox's face.
I do not have Illustrator.

I had posted in another thread about wanting to clean up a signature and make it look more font like. I tried that and it seemed to be pretty difficult due to the amount of random in a hand written signature.
So I think I'd like to approach this from the other direction. I have a font I like but I don't want it to look like the font (way too common). Is there a way to alter the font (not the entire font set or even to create a new font but just for a one word Logo)?
I'd ideally like to connect two of the letters and also modify the shapes of the letters just a bit.

Well I made a logo for my website and I actually like it but the font used for "Inovative-Scripts" doesn't really fit with the rest of the website.
It's a little PHP Company website (u know just for pocketmoney) together with a friend so it has to be kinda serious...the font is too comic like...
Does anyone have an Idea what font I could use...I've been lookin around for ages and I havn't found anythin that looks ok. I found this image on another website and I like the font...but I don't the name of the font.

I downloaded the trial of Illustrator but can't figure out the that process either.
Here's my problem: There is this font, Alberto Heavy Hollow, and I want to put it into Photoshop, alter it a bit, and then simply give the new font a black outline and 1 color fill. After that, I can include the colored name in my logo design.
I have tried converting it to paths, outline stroke, then sometimes when I want to do something to the font, under the "Object" selection, the thing I want to do is not activated in bold type.

I am building a site for a client, and as such they employed the services of a graphic designer to design a company logo. Well the client has chosen one of the logos but the colors do not fit in as well with the sit layout as one would desire. I approached the graphic designer to request changes for the client, but they sent me the files and said I can modify them in Photoshop.
The trouble is, I don't use PS. How to make the appropriate changes using Xara? I did try to highlight the text but I think it may all be part of an object with the razor. I wanted to convert the larger text to white and export everything from a dark background so it doesn't have the white jagged edge you would see from a white background.
I just tried to upload the ps but it is 800kb..

I have a script font that i need to resize. Most all the font is 144pt one of the letters needs to be 96pt. When i move just this one letter down in size the stroke on that letter looks puny and noticeably smaller.
Â
I need a good way of maintaining the stroke thickness and moving the height and wide down to 96pt.

I want to create a small custom set of extended uppercase characters for a company logo.
Â
I am starting with H&FJ's Idle wild and then extending it even further. I'm initially squashing it vertically to 75%. This looks as bad as you'd imagine - the contrast of the letter forms is distorted (the horizontal lines look too thin compared to the vertical lines). However my earlier rough attempt to mimic the original contrast (ratio of width of vertical lines to horizontal lines is approximately 7:6) created something that I'm fairly happy with.
Â
(Note that whilst I have now purchased Idle wild, I initially copied sample text from the H&FJ website and used Illustrator's trace function to create what is shown below, which explains the rather random bezier point placement. Incidentally I actually quite like some of the quirks this introduced to the letter forms - in particular the terminals of the S and the top of the A)
Â
The word has only seven characters - ACHORST
Â
Some of these (HT) are easy to fix manually. But in particular the round letters (COS) require a bit more thought.
Â
I'm pretty sure back 15 years ago I could have got most of the way there quickly with CorelDRAW. From memory there was an option to use strokes ('outlines' in Corel terminology) which weren't uniform height and width. So in this instance I'd create a 'nib shape' for the stroke which was much taller than it was wide, and applying this to the letterforms would restore the contrast to roughly that of the original. (I know that typographers don't simply do something like this to create different weights of a typeface, but for my purposes I suspect it would get me most of the way there and then I could tweak it visually.)
Â
The only wasy I can see to alter the stroke shape in Illustrator is via the Profile dropdown in the stroke dialog options, but this seems to be purely for 'artisitc' effect and entirely inappropriate for my purposes.

Basically what ive done, is taken a font ive found online and made quite a few changes to it by use of the paint brush, eraser and so on... now i want to save these changes and use this new "font" ive created, and use it in pictures and stuff.
what i would like to know, is how do i save the changes ive made? But i only want the words ive used. I dont want the black background i edited on. I would like to open the file, and just have the words i edited on the new background.

We have a 3rd party developing some marketing drawings for us and they are using a font that does not come with AutoCAD OOTB. When we couldn't see the text because of this "unknown" font, they sent us zip file with all the "Gotham-*.otf" files to load on our computers. My concern is probably obvious, that any customer of ours who downloads these drawings from our website will have the same problem with missing fonts. I suppose they could use the substitute font but then we would have no control over what they see.

Any way to make a custom font menu in coreldraw. By that I mean a shorter font menu that doesnt have all the fonts available on the computer. Ny work PC probably has 2000 or so fonts on it. I really only use 10 or so on a regular basis. It would be awesome if I could have my own custom font list that I could load, and still be able to get to the complete list somehow if I need it. Maybe something like a folder in the font menu?

I'm running on a fairly new Dell Studio laptop computer with Windows 7 Pro as the OS.The font was installed using the normal install font directions.
As stated above the font works fine in Adobe Illustrator and Microsoft Word.It shows as installed in Corel Draw font menu but will not print when trying to type, the curser just blinks.
I also have 2 desktop computers running Windows XP Pro OS where the font works perfectly in all programs.

I am engraving a company logo on to the outside of a round tube with a custom font. Â There are two boxes of text that I am engraving. Â The first box works just fine with the "Emboss" tool. Â The second line works fine when the "% Stretch" parameter in the text edit window is left at 100%. Â When I change the "% Stretch" to 85%, I get the "Self-intersecting loop found in this profile" error message. Â I get this error message when I try stretching it to 115% as well. Â I changed the font to a standard font and I was able to emboss the text no matter the "% Stretch" value.
The bottom line is Inventor will not emboss text that has a custom font and a modified stretch percentage. This line of text must be stretched to match the company logo.
