Default 3d printer?

My street address is 211. I copied this from a 911gt2 online decal and would love to put it above my front door when the renovations are finished.
What's the best way to convert this paper into something more permanent?
I don't believe that the font is available online so can this jpeg be converted to a file that a 3d printer or cnc could recognize? Thanks, Mike

I used this guy to 3d print a rear main seal tool for my 996. Could easily create that into some letters. Could get some neat depth using 3d printing.

You need to build a vector version then save as an Ai or EPS so the file can be imported into 3D software. You could hire someone on Fiver to do that for peanuts.

Have you tried one of the free online jpg to 3D converters? Can you upload the file here?

I've just spent the last two hours learning about tinkercad and Fiverr. I'll google jpg to 3d converters.
I tried to attach the jpg file but it just shows as a picture of the 211.
