Default Need Fonts,C5

I need your help!
I need an example to the letter C and the number 5 to digitize for embroidery.
I want the fonts to match the style found on the bumper.
Thanks, Tom.

Within the past week there was a thread on this same topic. It had a link to download the Corvette font. Do a search on Corvette Font and you should find something.

If you can't find it, e-mail me and I can send you an attachment that has the font.

I'm having trouble operating this file.
Could you just forward me the letter "C" and the number "5".
Can you size them at about two inches,
tbone@ebtech.net
Thank you.

What he said, but it will help if you save it to your \Windows\Fonts folder. That way, you can start up your word processor such as MS Word, and choose the CORVETTE font, and there you GO

How? I'm running XP (SP2) and it will not allow me to copy the CORVETTE file to the Fonts folder. Is there a secret to performing this function?
Thanks.

Try saving the file in another folder of your hard drive, then go in Windows Explorer, click on File -> Install New Font and browse to the font file. It should work.

I did it on XP SP2 by simply copying the file to the Windows\Fonts folder, worked like magic.

Enjoy!
