 Hi, 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!

I 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.

Could someone suggest a realistic-looking handwriting font?
Not printed, I want it to be cursive. I want to use it in letters.
Thanks.

Greetings, 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!

hello,
Does anyone know the name of this font or a font that is similar to this? I just like this type of font just don't know what category it falls into. Just love how the f is shape and how bold the letters while it has the cursive.
Thanks

OK, this is going to sound like me being exceptionally picky, but I need a font that is scripty, has lower case letters, and most of all, I need the capital to be about 3times the size of the lowercase. Also, I really don't know how exactly to describe this, bu I need the letters almost to be slurred (if that's a proper description for it) rather that how a lot of scripts have it, where it is perfect cursive right from the textbook (lol). Basically, I want it to look like a hastily written sort of style. (I don't know how much sense that makes...)
PLEASE help me ASAP!
Also, I'm having problems making the fonts I install stay installed. Every time I shut down my computer, I have to re-install them when I start again. Is this possibly a problem with my computer or am I forgetting to do something when I unzip the files? Or is it because I am not logged on to my computer's admin?
Thanks for the help!
