Several applications. First of all the eye-brain coordination; remembering. When this does not work I know at least in which direction to search. Most if not all typefaces have something that is not found in others. In this case the slopes on the stems - which is not that uncommon. What is more uncommon is the angle of the slopes and the shape of the lower case g.
First impression is that two faces of the same type are used. So I go for that uncommon g, which I remember as Interstate and - thus - Roadgeek. Not happy with slopes of the stems I run a match. First I sort of restore the text so that it can be used for shape recognition. Because of the typical shape of the g it does not need to be perfect.
I run a match on wtf (What the font). A quick and dirty way to find a match for many commercial fonts. Best match; indeed, Interstate. Because of the shape of the g the Taz does not show. As I already rejected the Interstate I run a match locally to see whether there is something else. Not as quick as wtf, takes about 20 minutes, but accurate. Again the same fonts.
What did I do wrong? I assumed the two types to be the same. Jumping into conclusions ... never a good thing ...

You Need To Set Some Attributes to you font folder
To Do this you need to click either Start>Run or Start>Programs>Accessories>MS Dos Prompt
After you do this type in
Attrib c:\windows\fonts +s +r
(The C:\Windows\fonts needs to be the path to your font folder)
This Will set Your font Folder to a System folder and a Read-only folder.
Then When you open the font folder and Click on FILE there should be a Install New font Option.

Download the attachment and Run FontFIX (Only Works if you Font Folder Path Is C:\Windows\Fonts)
Tell me if this helps you.....

That's why I said 'looks like'. The Black version may do but I have doubts about the M. VAG seems to run a bit wider but your pict is not very sharp, right? - re: could you please help?

Do I still have to run a match for round, fat and with balls after Swallows hints? I do like the Jojo. Have always had a weak spot for jojos. - re: I'm in love with.

I was wondering about that this morning so I gave it a try. The bold version of the Frutiger 55 is the Frutiger 65, right? Now, when I only temporarily install the 55, both 'normal' and simulated bold run over the same lenght (am I phrasing this correctly??).
Then, 55 uninstalled and 65 installed and using the same text I see that 65 is bolder than 55 made bold but everything still runs the same lenght.
So I got stuck, could not reproduce the problem. - re: Frutiger Roman width problem
