Can anyone make this typeface a vector?

So, I'm trying to use a custom font that isn't available to the public. I found the entire font set, but it isn't a vector. Is there anyone out there who can create a vector of this alphabet:

With the help of this:

lol!

So you want somebody from a site full of people who value fonts to help you steal a private font? Is this for counterfeit leather bags too?

Maybe I should email Gareth Hague...

I'm sure someone can, but that someone ain't me.

Aside: Is it just me, or does the Prada logo look like something off a washing machine?

The Prada font is a custom, proprietary font. And the company has enough cash and lawyers to make your life hell. Stay away from this, is my advice.

"Want to buy cheap Prada font? Looks juz like the real thing, honestly!" :D

On the one hand, on the other...

Yes, someone with mischief in mind could use a font based on these letterforms to do mischief, but…

The only way ANY lawyer could find you at fault would have to be EXACTLY the same way that a lawyer could find a handgun manufacturer at fault for supplying the means for someone to kill someone else. Good luck finding ANY case law to support that argument.

On the other hand, the logo isn't particularly innovative, nor does it REALLY contain anything which hasn't been done before. So…

Make the freaking font, but make ABSOLUTELY SURE that the /R and the /A ARE NOT EXACTLY LIKE the ones in the logo…which should not be difficult to do.

This moment of sanity brought to you by the screwiest guy posting on this forum.

Sorry, Hrant: in this department, I am Number One…

the screwiest guy posting on this forum.

You don't know that.

Hrant,

True: I may not know that, but I am going to do my damnedest to prove it. So there :Þ

I don't believe there is any mischief involved at all here, and I'll be glad to help create font vectors for this. If the OP will simply get in touch with my agent, the honorable Benjamin S. Ahore, esq. at the The Central Bank Of Nigeria, he will set up the necessary accounts.

Thank you sincerely,
Frank U. Finkelstein
