 This one got me for a while too. Although there is no one font for this purpose (designers are obviously free to pick and choose their type, and frequently do), I found that for the traditional credits on DVD and video packaging like you're describing, Bitstream's Zurich Light Extra Condensed absolutely does the trick. But there are plenty of alternatives kicking around.

[quote:5b8106a08c="richiea"]Yes but how do I upload it?[/quote:5b8106a08c]
click the Img button > type the image URL (http://www.thedomain.ext/imagelocation/image.ext) > click 'Close Tag's. That's it.
That is; the image must be somewhere on a server so that it can be viewed. Some free ISPs do not allow the viewing of just an image, only complete pages (otherwise they can not add their sparkling, flashy, distracting and download time consuming banners). Like AOL ao. In that case or put the image into a page or link directly to the page where you saw the image. In these cases the thing to do is click the URL button > type the URL of where the page with the pict is > click 'Close Tags'.
Now show us.

Hey there SG-
Here we go: your top one, though it looks straightforward, is a little difficult to put a finger on. Put it this way -- it's a heavyweight of either Helvetica, good ol' Arial, Swiss 721 BT or Zurich BT. This, I suppose, depends on exactly how dead-on you wish to be. But this sample is too small and has too few characters to be able to make perfect match. Arial, of course, comes free with Windows9x and upward. Helvetica, Swiss and Zurich are all available from MyFonts at varying prices.
Your second font is much simpler. Originally it would have been Eurostile Extended, but there are clones floating all over the 'net on sites such as this under names like "Eurasia", "Eurose", "Microgramma", and on and on. A little delving and you'll eventually find what you're looking for.
Good lick and also luck,

OK, you got me...in that case, hop back over to MyFonts and search for Zurich BT.

Hi there-
I found the "new products" font for you - Zurich Light Extra Condensed - but the "business" one remains somewhat of a mystery: the closest match I could make was Bitstream's Swiss 924.
Maybe that's enough, I don't know. But ther we are.
Slightly,
