    Default Identify Font?

    Can anyone identify this font? It's similar to Magneto, but that's as close as I can get with my sources.

    It's not a font per se. It's a logo... It could be tricky to find the exact font as the designer has modified it.

    sledger,
    Yes I did. Nothing close.
    Risto,
    I know it could have been modified, but I have had luck in the past finding what fonts were used in designs. See my attached Honda logo, font found was Millhouse. Anyone else?

    Thanks both.

    Jim

    If you can't find the font this kind of lettering is easy to replicate in Xtreme using the shape editor tool make your lines about 12/13pt with round cap and join. This example only took a couple of minutes.

    Angelize,
    I can do websites OK, but the editor tools always give me fits. Not enough practice I guess. I can get most of it looking OK, but the curved "B" I can't get to match exactly. Can you explain in more detail how to follow the curve? Also, what's the best way to get the ends of the "9" to be on the correct angle?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Jim
