Identify a font by extracting vector from a JPEG

I'm trying to identify the font used in this graphic.

enter image description here

Alternatively, is there a way to extract this letter out into a vector graphic form that I could scale up? I have Pixelmator at my disposal.

If you have more characters to go by, you may be able to use Identifont or something similar to identify the typeface.

There are various programs that will allow you to create a vector from a file, examples are Illustrator and Inkscape. however, the font is fairly easily identified by uploading the file to WhatTheFont, I got these promising results.

Don't suppose there's anywhere to get that font for free? – Ternary – 2011-02-27T21:17:18.523

@Ternary I'm sure there are underground websites that might offer them, but I urge you to consider paying for it. Paying will encourage developers to maintain their developing of great fonts/software. – BloodPhilia – 2011-02-27T21:19:54.073

Yea for sure, I'm not into stealing. I was just curious, I don't really know much about the font world. Thanks again! – Ternary – 2011-02-27T21:29:45.983

@Ternary Well, just like software, fonts are licensed and can be either free, trial or commercial. – BloodPhilia – 2011-02-27T21:36:27.663
