3400 SFI Font

[Shiwnath]

So I've been trying to replicate the 3400 SFI font found on the UIM plenum. As you can see in my Sig, I've gotten a little close but it's still fairly off. It's an obvious attempt at getting it to match the plenum font but I've never been satisfied with it. Tonight I decided to search the web for fonts that may look better than what I currently have and I created a couple of samples using paint to try to get as close as possible.

Here's the font samples I've tried:

As a reference of what I'm trying to accomplish:

All of the font samples are bolded and italicized. IMO The Kimberly horizontal stretch looks the best, but the quality kept getting worse as I stretched it in crappy paint. I don't have Photoshop installed on my desktop at the moment which is why I didn't bother with using it. Let me know what you guys think!

this may be a crude way of doing it, but you could trace the 3400 sfi on the plenum, then scan it, and then put it into photoshop and mask it or whatever to replicate it

*EDIT* completely missed the part about you not having photoshop. fail >.<

Lol not too bad. Tracing the plenum font isn't a bad idea, but I'm looking for a digital way of doing it so I can do other things with the font and what not. That way I can even make ones that even say "3500 SFI".
