EMERGENCY help with a pdf file
« on: January 13, 2017, 08:57:53 PM »
CorelDRAW says it's corrupt. I usually send these to a local buddy who is closed now,
simple conversion to eps, or a pdf that actually works

DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES COMPLETELY WITHIN MY CONTROL YOU SHOULD GET YOUR OWN TEE SHIRT AND A SHARPIE MARKER BY NOON TOMORROW OR SIMPLY CALL SOMEONE WHO GIVES A SHIRT.

Ugh, probably generated in Illy or the like, get ready for 10000 objects as the interpretation on the graduated fills.

whole point is I need vector to simplify it and do a one-off cad-cut.
I'm putting the main font up for ID. I can reconstruct the rest if I get that

Just to report back, I finally got a large enough raster image to allow me to do a trace that was pretty good (with a little redraw and node manipulation)
My custie reported back to me that the font is a proprietary one, so, apparently I did the best that I could do under the circumstances.
