I need to cut some vinyl and when I import the file into Corel X4 it has some custom fonts that are not recognizable. Is there anyone that can help me with this or do I have to redraw it. The customer doesn't know how either.

Someone with full Acrobat Reader will probably be able to open it and give you back an eps

The last file was the wrong file AFTER I cut some vinyl. This is apparently the right one but it is not translating right. Why is this stuff so difficult sometimes? If someone could help me here , again I know. Thank you.

If by "not translating right" you mean the "breaks" between letters in the word "Sierra"...easy fix....select the word ctrl Q to convert it to curves...ctrl K to break it all apart into pieces...marquee select the I and it's dot...ctrl L to join...same for the inner and outer sections of the E...then, marquee select the entire word..."Arrange"... "shaping" ...& "Weld".....for "pathology", you should be able to just ctrl L and make it one plottable piece...Do it again (ctrl L) with both words selected, and you should wind up ready for plotting...Hope this helps!
