Mrs. Peel Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I need to make letters out of tire tracks. Anyone have any suggestions on how to turn a JPG of a straight track into letters? It's not vector. We tried using the warp tool to make each letter but you don't get enough control. OR...anyone know of any fonts that are premade? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mrs. Peel Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Yeah, and I might use that in a pinch, but we're looking for the tracks to follow the shape of the letters.Thanks though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mrs. Peel Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Seen this?http://simplythebest.net/fonts/fonts/eaglegt.html They realized this font looked pretty good when compared to paying someone to do any work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
isadorah Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 They realized this font looked pretty good when compared to paying someone to do any work! if that doesn't work out for you, you might try placing the photo of the tire track into an Illustrator file, tracing it, to create a vector piece of artwork, then you could, typeset your words on top of the vector artwork, convert it to outlines, and then manipulate away at the typeface.
