I need to recreate a business card for engraving. I have no idea what this font is though! Anyone know?

The "What the font" app on my Iphone says its
Emory Bold Italic (typodermic)

Looks like Arial Italic.

Lucida Sans is very close.

I am not expert on these (fonts have a bad habit of looking too same-y to me :) ), but here is what I got from WhatTheFont:
* Sentico Sans DT Cond Thin Italic
* Fishmonger CT Italic
* CamingoDos Condensed Extra Light Italic
* CamingoDos Pro Condensed Extra Light Italic
* Decima Light Italic
The first two do not look right at all to me. The CamingoDos looks close but lacks the curl on the tails (u and l for example).
Decima looks closest to me but feels "bolder".

Looks to me like Calibri italic. Microsoft's new default font in Office 2007 installs.

Yea, I love my iphone. There is an app for almost everything.
I am really suprised how much I actually use that "what the font" app.
If you get a better quality version of the font I can re run it for you but I think chris already ran it through their website.

Unless your customer is a fussy typographer, he or she will probably never even notice the difference from Ariel.. I've always been amazed at what the customer 'can't' see..:p

I know most won't notice, figured if I could get I would use it.
