Matching fonts and text

Matching fonts and text
Mon, 11 Jun 2007 16:59:47 +010
I'm using PSP 7 Anniversary Edition 7.04, Windows XP HE SP2.

I'm not sure to how to explain this, but I have a photo of a friend wearing 
a 'Guinness' hat, with the logo and word showing. I'd like to replace the 
word with her name, but keeping the original font and size if possible - is 
there a way of doing this?

Also, is there a way of changing the angle of the text, so that the word is 
wider at one end, for example?

Thank you for any help.

You can clone and smudge or push the text off the hat, and then place text 
of your own. The Deformation Tool can be used to slant the text, just grab a 
corner or side node and drag.

The font is a matter of knowing which type it is, and then trying to match 
its size. Maybe this is the font

download it and put it into your fonts folder.

Hope this helps.
