16 matchesHi, I'm a newbie here, but I've been dabbling in typography and font design on my own for a few years now. I have discovered a style of ornamental capital which I'm eager to find as a font. I'm not sure if it is really a font, though. It might just be fancy customised lettering.
I found these capitals in a book called "Angels: An Endangered Species". I was actually more impressed by these capitals than by the content of the book. I just stumbled on this site, and there seem to be more than a few folks here who really know their fonts :)
Okay, a little more detail on this: I've searched through the text, and these ornate caps are reserved for chapter openings (as they should be), so there are few of them. I was only able to spot these 4 letters (some are used more than once at various places).
Any ideas on this one? The engraved look of the detail makes me think that it's probably custom lettering, but with font design as intricate as it is these days, I figured even for a book that's been around since 1990, that there might be such a font. Oh, and one more thing: the typesetting of the text was done by someone in Florence, italy by the name of Simonetta Castelli. I know, it's a long shot, but I can't find anything but pages in Italian on her (hmm ... wonder why?? ;) Thanks in advance for helping!

15 matchesI am looking for a font w/ people, preferably kids, making letters either w/ their whole bodies or like "YMCA." I swear I've seen that type of logo, but does it exist as a font? FYI, this is for a community coalition that serves kids.
1 matchesI'm working on a piece of artwork that uses the catepillar on the mushroom from Alice in Wonderland and would like to use my computer to generate the phrase "Whoooooo R U?" in smoke/cloud type letters. I'm looking for a free font that fills the bill. Thanks!!:confused:
2 matchesI need this font!
(check the "S", the "r" and the "e")
5 matchesGreetings, font maniacs!
I wonder if there ANY font types which has some (or all) of the accented letters?
Such as: í,é,á,ö,ü,ű,ó,Á,?,?,Ű,? etc. tc.
If not, is there any way to make accented letters in an existing font type?
Please answer!
2 matchesThis font is free for personal use and can be used commercially with a donation.
The font contains many additional characters including Greek and Cyrillic letters.
Also comes in an "alternate" version with a different lowercase letter "a," that may be more identifiable among other letters/ easier to differentiate from other letters.
I hope you like it.
2 matchesHi everybody:
The font I´ve used for this image is called "Will Robinson" (I guess so).
I like it very much, but it has a little problem. It has only capital letters (A,B,C,D,...but no a,b,c,d...).
I would like to ask you if you know a font, similar to this one, which contains all the letters (capitals and smalls).
Your help will be very helpful.As always, thanks.

But I think it is far from ideal, all letters having the same hight.
Why not name a font that you think would be the best if it only were in dots? Then I'll make you the font.
When I was young and ignoranent we learned the shape of the letters with the help of letters cut out of sandpaper glued on pieces of board. Amazing that I can still remember this.
