 Another possibility is... use DIN for the whole thing! I don't think DIN 1451 is that heavy*** so you would need to add weight and cut the corners off for LIFE of course.
*** Edit: or FF DIN which has loads of weights.

Hey could use some help.
Does anyone know any free fonts similar to EF DIN 1451 Mittel Alt?
I need to use the font but cannot afford to pay at this point in time due to financial constraints.
Please help!

Ivan, ever thought about the Din Black for YOUDEM and the Din Medium for tv?

 I thought it would be easy to recreate this, because I assumed it was a HelvBold Condensed, just tightening the kerning.
The "K" and "W" are different and the X-Height is just a tiny bit off, I think.
I tested Trade Gothic Condensed, DIN varieties, etc. I thought for sure it would have been posed here before, but couldn't find it in a search!
Experts, what say you :-)?

The bitmap is still a bit of a puzzle. Looking at the caps only, quite a number of (I guess) 9 or 10 pixiel bitmaps could do the job. So, only looking at the lower case can tell us which type we're looking at. Here we have a problem: The 'a' does match the '04b_03' but that's about it. When I match any other 10 pixel bitmap with the 't' the 'a' never matches. So I'm stuck on this one.
For what you suggest as 'photoshop small or large' I would suggest the 'DIN 1451 Mittelschrift'. Always difficult to be sure with caps only but the figures in the clock of the leader movie confirm this. Have a look at the 4 and the 7.

? Hi, I'm a design student replicating a magazine page for a class exercise. I need to find a FREE typeface similar to FF DIN. I'm a student so cannot afford to pay for the actual commercial one. Something similar and free would be great.
