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,
Looks good. Thanks, I'll give it a try.

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
Hi Jim,
There's many tutorials knocking around showing how to use the shape editor to follow curves.

Well, after 3 hours this is what I came up with, used a lot of add/subtract shapes. Still could use some fine-tuning, but I got bored with it, so movin' on. Thanks for the suggestions.
Jim
Here is a mini tutorial of how I did my previous example using the original image that I copied and pasted from Jim's first post. I find the shape editor tool to be one of Xtreme's most versatile tools, with a little practice it is easy to master. I have included my .xar file as well in case the tutorial is hard to read from the png.
