 Posted: Sun Aug 07, 2011 11:48 am Post subject: Straightening warped text |
 |
|
Hi, Really new to photoshop. I've searched around the web and I can't find an answer to my specific problem. There's some text in a specific font that I like, and it is printed on a tshirt, which I don't own but have a picture of. I have managed to capture the text, but can't find the font even using font-finder tools.
SO.
The final two letters are slightly warped due to the fabric in the picture, I've tried the warp tool to straighten but either I'm not very good or I can't get it right.
This is really silly as I just want to make this into a sticker with some graphics and put it on my guitar case.
I've attached the JPG as an example
Any Suggestions?
Thanks.

I've managed to make a U by slicing it in half and copying it and flipping it, because half of it is straight. Working on the G.

The font is a modified version of ITC Bauhaus Medium, it looks like the paths have been joined. I wonder if perhaps someone has modified the existing font and perhaps you could find a free-ware version but its a long shot.
Here's a link to the original, but it's not free I'm afraid Bauhaus Font

If you PM me your email, I can send you a Photoshop Custom Shape of it, where I have joined the paths for you, but that's the best I can do, I'm afraid.

Wow guys, that's really great, I actually managed to do something similar to what the hermit did on my own but I'm sure mine isn't as good. Lining things up perfectly is a challenge.
I'll check out the font also. Thanks for all the feedback!

I created the G out of an A and put pieces together, it looks OK, but as you can see, where I created the pieces it doesn't line up well, and I can't seem to get small enough to line it up perfectly.
I'm not a photoshop stud I'm afraid.
