Problem solved - sort of.

I was looking through one of the "dime-a-dozen" font collections we have lying around and found a font called "Darwycke." It's a nearly perfect match except that it's designed with about a 15 degree slant. So our solution is to skew it at -15� and see how it looks. On top of that, though, it seems the thermographer has played with the glyphs themselves: the capital H isn't the glyph from the font, and the �'s don't "unskew" very well.

Thanks for your help - we'll take it from here.

-Bill
