Or, if this re-draw option is not part of your original question then I apologize for the tangent. But the actual font match, custom shape drawing and correct building of the paths in vector art to re-draw a logo while being true to it's original intent is a fine art and should only be done by one who appreciates the extreme attention to detail so that you don't get a jsut add computer designer newbie that gives you back Georgia, rather than times or kerning that is off or white patches, rather than correctly compounded paths in order to have transparency or the look of it till you set it on top of another item (like in the counter-space of a P for instance). It is a flip of a switch albeit there are some parameters one can set to get a better desired result that should be experimented with.

The only thing I would say made me comment was that I didn't want anyone to think that auto-tracing a bitmap is the only option. If you could show the jpg and tell me what the other file is for I'd have a clearer view of what the use was and thus likely what the scenario is. When finished, one can make clean vector art and have full control of the elements like the design with the orange background in the lower right. When enlarged, the image above will show the low rez logo locked down, gridded out and drawn over the top of. Over the years, I've become quite adept at logo redraws, so if you need a vector eps of a custom logo that you have in jpg or jpeg format I could lock it down and re-create it to be nearly undetectably different. Then upon import the path was usually backwards (if you have luck like me) and there would be a square or rectangle with a transparent hole where the apple should have been with no background showing in the preview. One would go to photoshop with the bitmap tiff image for instance, create a clipping path and save as an eps. The bitmap ones I spoke of earlier were great back when a print program like quark needed the extra, vector clipping path layer in order to have custom transparency around an isolated part of an image, persay an apple.

Then there is the common vector type of eps that works so well across platforms and various vector software drawing apps.

There is the bitmap version where any bitmap image is saved as an eps out of any image editing software capable of doing so. Probably so, but maybe not used to be the answer depending. However, I usually tell clients when they ask me,' What type of file should I ask them for to give you? Is ESP OK?'. It's been my experience that ther term '.eps file' can cause confusion for reasons similar to what Mike states above.
