Re: corvette font (Q1KSLVR)

sorry for inaccuracy.

its a PC font. download it to your windows font directory (C:\Windows\Fonts).
Open an application like MS Word and choose the Corvette font for typing.

Re: corvette PC font (corvettemaster)

its a need to save this file to C:\Windows\Fonts
You have to restart word if it was opened before installing the font.

Finally...

(it looks like aliased, but when printing, the edges are smooth, also by using option "anti-alias" in graphic programs)

Re: corvette PC font (Beautiful Beast)

I had to save it someplace else and goto my font folder and under FILE there is an option to install font. After that it worked great. Thanks for sharing this with us. :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

Re: corvette PC font (Southern Comfort)

Attention, if you use it on your website, only people will see this font as corvette font which have this font installed. Use it in pics and banners, or tell them to install this font for a correct view. choose an alternate font to the corvette font.

I convert the text to images first I dont have that problem nor a wrapping problem.... :yesnod:

I have found that if you create the text box in publisher copy the text box and paste it into photoshop or paint shop pro it creates a perfect image. Even better than doing it in the graphics program.

Re: corvette PC font (cyberblast)

In WINDOWS 98 you need to save this file to C:\Windows\Fonts
When I did this I was able to use it right off.
Thanks

Very nice work. Do you have a C4 Corvette font as well? This one is great for C5s. I'd like to design some decals for my car when I get it back.

Thanks,

Ron
