You could try the trace program at vector magic (free trial)... it will convert a pretty crappy jpg to a vector.

What's with the blue segments cut off?

This is from Vector Magic - minus the blue thingies.

This is from Inkscape.  Not quite as sharp.

Hmmm. I'd have to say Vector Magic would win. Nice and easy. Pretty clean. Good enough I'll bet.

Looks a bit muddy. Vector magic is good for artwork and not so much for text.

That depends on your needs. If you're looking for crisp clean exact type then you may need to re-draw by hand or find the actual type.   For that, what was supplied, it looked like a pretty good job and would more tan likely be acceptable to the customer.

Dan is right about autotracing text, unless it's a "handwritten" style. I've found on more than one occasion that it takes me more time rooting through the various font download sites than it ended up taking to redraw the damn thing to begin with, which I had to do anyway after not finding the fonts.

I sorry it was late and I didnt explain myself fully. This is a freebie and I was hoping  someone might know the names of these fonts as for I am a lazy ass when it comes to freebies.
