Thanks for the quick reply Chip,
Unfortunately, I really don't have a good answer as to how I ended up with the logo file I have... Was trying a lot of options.
I attached a couple of DXF/DWG files that I created initially, but I was not able to open them. I think I ended up using the attached JPG file since DXF was giving me grief out of Illustrator.
If so, then I think I know why I have just an outline now... probably used the "trace" option during import.... Is there another option?
On another note, regarding the box around the text.... I can do that, but I wanted to explain further in case I was vague before... the pocket needs to be the actual letter shape, ( between the lines) not the surrounding area of the letter....
Thanks again...
Pete
