1 matchesHi,
[quote]@LAvish:Actually I don't think its Egyptian Bold Extended because the middle part of the E is different. Could it be a different version of Egyptian?[/quote]
Egyptian is the old term for «Slab Serif». See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slab_serif
Your example is a Slab Serif according the Clarendon model and it`s no Clarendon.
The typeface Cairo is a typical example but it`s condensed:

The «Fette Egyptienne» from Dieter Steffmann is another good example:

Note: Both typefaces are tagged «serif» and not «slab serif». Searching for the tag «slab serif» will not work properly for Clarendon Model typefaces. :-(
Bye Bye
3 matchesI have tried Identifont and What the Font with out any luck. Anybody here know this face?
1 matchesThis font Slab Serif corresponds to the series of typefaces built proportions derived from mathematical sequences. An experiment in the sense of proportion, to define all I have relied mainly on the Fibonacci sequence, I have also used some numbers of the sequence of Lucas and crevices at the nodes of the horns and some punctuation've used Kepler triangle.

1 matchesThe reason why your Angela Bold won't open under XP / Vista is the missing info in the naming section. Unlike 98 and before XP/Vista require the unique font identifier.
As you can see the Angela lacks this info. Apart from that it is a badly made clone, far too many points and, worse, many duplicate points. Hardly usable for print.
1 matchesDuring a typical installation, Windows 95, 98, XP and Vista install, amongst many others, the truetype (95, 98) or open type (XP, Vista) versions of Times New Roman (Times.ttf), Times New Roman Bold (Timesbd.ttf), Times New Roman Bold Italic (Timesbi.ttf) and Times New Roman Italic (Timesi.ttf).
Find a machine with any version of Windows 95 and up (should not be impossible) and Bob's your uncle ...
3 matchesThe least I can suggest:
1. Retro
2. Display / Headline (although this could be rather unclear to most non-typo addicts)
3. Condensed (I know, most fonts that are Condensed have it written in their filename, but anyway)
4. "Normal" is okay, although it should be "Text"
5. DaFont has Cartoon AND Comic, which are quite good descriptions. We have Cartoon, but we don't have Comic
Any other suggestions are welcome. Alex?
PS. Also would like to see "Slab Serif" category, just in case :)
2 matchesI've tried a few font ID sites, but haven't come up with a good match for this. It looks almost like it's close to an Aachen, but with some different serifs. Does anybody by chance recognize this?
1 matchesHi,
similar to Stymie:

Just have a look at similar fonts or use Rockwell, shipped with M$ Operating Systems and Corel Draw (Geometric Slab Serif 712) or Memphis (Corel Draw: Geometric Slab Serif 703):

*EDIT* Sorry, I posted the wrong Charactermap. Its from Linotype Stymie and the capital letter R is wrong. See for the other versions of Stymie (the link points to the right versions) and their proper R.
Bye bye
