I am making a latch hook pillow for my son in college. This font is used, but I don't know its name. Can you help? - What is this font, please?

Koeiekat - thanks for that. Poor little Ollie is on happy pills, recovering from his - well, snip.
He is adorable - and almost 6 months old now...

Just my 2 cents worth....I think it's time to tell her to either stop multiple posts of the same requests or be removed.
I know how frustrating it is when you see a cool typeface and wonder if it's a font and if so, is it freeware, shareware, commercial, etc. Believe me I've been tempted to post samples more than once but know it's pointless and wrong.
The one good thing of this is that at least they're font requests instead of spam for pills or the latest gadget. ;) - re: Please identify this font

Hey there, Pillhead-
I turn to Alex for your font request, as he is master af all web.
As for your question about the 04 series, this is an attribute of all bitmap fonts, which are indended to be displayed at low point sizes. The reason for their distortion at higher points is not exactly starightforward, but I will give it my best shot.
Bitmap fonts are designed according to a pixel-perfect set of rules and guidelines (this varies between both fonts and designers). Because, as a rule, text and display fonts are designed in a less precise manner, they will display seemingly perfectly at almost any point size. A display (that is, monitor) has only a certain amount of pixels per inch to work with, and therefore will sometimes overcompensate with which pixels it decides to turn black when displaying a bitmap font at higher point sizes. Thus the resulting distortion. Displays will still do this with "other" fonts, don't get me wrong, but the distortion is less evident because of the very nature of display and text fonts. Bitmap fonts, in the .ttf format, will print at any point size without distortion.
I apologize for the complexity of that little lecture, but it was off the cuff and unrefined. Given a few years I could probably pare it down and make it a little less impenetrable.
TTFN,

I'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: - ISO "smoke" font
