I'm in dire need of a serious shortcut. Maybe someone could tell me if I've got any options.
I need to take someone's handwriting and turn it into a vector shape as it's going to be a headline for a poster I'm working on. I've got the handwriting scanned as a tiff at 600dpi.
Any thoughts, ideas, or recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

Illustrator CS3 Live Trace?

illustrator > live trace

^ What he said. If you don't have CS3 then you can always go old school and make paths in photoshop > export paths to AI.

True.
Sometimes it's easier via photoshop because you can level-out your whites, increase contrast, etc.

I think it's like $10 or something like that... good luck!

or just draw it yourself

I'd draw it myself, but I've got 4 scheduled hours to remain on budget and get a shit load of work done. I really really appreciate the help guys. I hadn't touched live trace in CS3 yet, so I'll go that route.
Thanks a ton! I hate budgeted hours...
- Budgeted hours a sad reality most of the time. Best of luck!pylon
