I have the correct font but if you look at photo above i cant get the font to have that chipped/jagged look. Is there a tool on photoshop cs4 that give my font that same look??

An easy one is to resterize the text and then use a layer mask and use a grunge brush. It won't give the exact same look but something similar. Hope it helped
