I am drawing up the graphics to make decals for a Sonauto 914-6 replica for the RC car bodies that we are buying. You can see what I have below. Currently, I am in need of a Windows font style which is most similar to the one used to write "SONAUTO". See pic:
(IMG:http://fly.hiwaay.net/~jonlowe/hagen17.jpg) Specifically, note the way the 'A' looks. Fonts that I have found that have the correct looking 'A', have an incorrect looking 'N'. If you find anything, let me know. In the end, I can fudge it with graphics, but it would be easier to just find the font. BTW, I plan on inkjet printing these onto clear sticker sheet for application onto the body. Once it is all done, I will make the files available to whoever wants them, or will print sticker sheets (nominal charge) for whoever wants it. Thanks in advance Demick '74 2.0 |

Thanks Andy (and everyone else). Those fonts are pretty close, but no better than the ones I already had. I went ahead and used the '911 Porscha' font which was really good except for the 'N'. I spread the distance between the letters, then compressed it horizontally, and then fixed the 'N', and it looks plenty good enough for me. Here's what I have now, I think this is pretty much everything. Of course, it is all much higher resolution than I am posting here (the VW Porsche graphic looks especially crappy in this small jpg). Most all of the graphics are vector graphics.
