Anyone recognize this font? (post your font identification requests here!)

thanks for the reply, that is indeed the font, are you aware of any free fonts which have a similar look?

ekompute · January 5, 2009, 11:41pm

Actually, all fanciful fonts are free to use… that is, after you paid for it, LOL.

Try AvantGarde and Century Gothic clones - search for “look-alike” or “alias”.

I asked this a while ago and no response. What font is the sitepoint logo.

ttmt · January 7, 2009, 12:21pm

I think it could be a version of Helvetica

system · January 7, 2009, 1:39pm

Hm I don’t think its Helvacta directly but it looks similar enough that it could be a version of it.

It is a handwriting font but I have never seen such realistic looking handwriting font.

If you have any idea about it please let me know.

Thanks

I’d start looking in here - DaFont > Script > Handwritten

That looks like a customized handwriting font to me. I’ve used several handwriting fonts and have seen dozens upon dozens and that one is unfamiliar to me. Will post if I find it though.

[I wasn’t sure if I should post this here or in the Graphics forum, but I’m not trying to create a graphic, so I figured this was the spot to make the thread.]

Anyway, does anyone know what font this is [the big one]:

I want to say that it’s from the Futura family, but I’m not sure.

It looks like a bold and narrow version of Franklin Gothic to me.

AutisticCuckoo · February 11, 2009, 1:06pm

Have you read the How To Recognize a Font thread? It might be of help here.

I’ve also used the eloquently titled ‘What the Font’. After nearly 30 years, I was able to recognise a font which my former local bus company used to use for one of their tickets.

Sha · February 12, 2009, 1:13am

I can’t believe I missed this thread! Then again, I posted this early in the morning.

After searching like a nut, the closest ones I found are Futura Extra Bold Oblique & Futura Black. There is a slight difference between the two, but it doesn’t matter which one I use.

Hi, can you help me to recognize the font of the attached pictures. This pictures are from site menu. Thanks in advance!

Varelse · February 23, 2009, 6:13pm

Looks like DIN (Bold or Medium ).

roonex · February 24, 2009, 12:49pm

Yes, it is DIN Mittelschrift LT 1451.
Thanks!!!
