That sounds like an interesting font program Chris. Pretty clever of it too to spot a commercial font.

I tend to use photoshop or illustrator and create vectors of any fonts like Citroens badges. Currently got a good Activa sticker using this method.

Not for body text, Chris, just for the extra. CITROËN each on its own letter, the Xm logo on X and what else? I'll do it tomorrow.

This is a first version.

Haha, "The uploaded file is empty", the forum says... You can grab it from:

I've been having problems with that message for ages! Seems to afflict Word and text files.
JPG photo files still getting rejected, randomly, as well.

Well done Gabor with the font magic!
Russ will be delighted too.

PS Did you get my PM re: Xantia electrovalves?

And even replied something (although not necessarily about that topic). And discussed it with my mechanic the other day.

It's an interesting late development but I wonder if it helps us. In don't remember now what the moral of the story was. It can't be retrofitted, can it?

Hi Gabor,

Don't want to hijack this thread any more than done already, so I've replied here...
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8100
where all the info about the late-type valves is.
