Thank you so much for the help!!! I really appreciate it!

Remember that hier, at Typography.guru, under Fonts > Font Lists, you have lists of free fonts that can be really useful.

Hi everyone. I am looking for this futuristic/space looking for for AUSTIN THEORY used back on the WWE Network in 2019. I used to have this font downloaded but somehow I must've misplaced it and I can no longer remember its name. If anyone happens to know what this font is, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I think it's Signmaker 2 from LHF. Mix of Regular and Fancy.

Hi all, I would like some help with fonts used in a BBC web video from 2005. Here are screenshots from said video (sorry about the picture quality but it was 2005). I think I've managed to identify most of them, but would like to have a second opinion from the experts on here; and also have help to narrow down some to specific fonts within a family. 1964 > Cooper Black 1965 > ?? 1966 > ?? 1967 > in Eurostile family 1968 > in Eurostile family 1969 > Arial 1970 > ?? 1971 > Maiandra 1972 > Cooper Black 1973 > Britannic Bold 1974 > Budmo Jiggler 1975 > Futura Extra Bold 1976 > Arial Rounded or Helvetica Rounded 1977 > ?? 1978 > Arial Black 1979 > Street Cred 1980 > Hobo 1981 > Computer Regular 1982 > ?? 1983 > ?? (similar to Tahoma) 1984 > Stencil 1985 > Arial Rounded or Helvetica Rounded 1986 > Bauhaus 1987 > Segoe UI 1988 > ?? 1989 > ?? Thank you in advance 🙂

Looks like Luna by Carolina Mejia Villegas.

This font is used in graphics for RM's album Right Place, Wrong Person that's coming out in a few weeks. I've done some digging on my own including inspecting the website and it seems similar to Nanum Myeongjo but it doesn't match perfectly. I'm looking for a digital version and commercial fonts are fine.

Mellissa, which sadly has never been digitized.

'CHANGING MISSION' looks like Teko (Bold 700). 'Episcopalians' indeed seems to be Minion (Minion Pro Bold Italic). 'LEE LITTLE' looks more like Faustina (Regular 400).

It was designed by Geoffrey Lorenzen, but his website (www.omaticdesign.com) is no longer live and the typeface is “no longer available,” per the PDF attached. GLorenzen.pdf

Thanks you David. We did look at Auteur but the majority of the letterforms just seem way off. Many thanks for looking.

Maybe you can try Merchant Copy?

Many thanks - that's a great starting point. Cheers CM

A DOCTOR’S STORY… is set in Neutraface No. 2 Text Demi .

You shouldn’t be surprised that the brand never responded—if your goal is to create "matching designs," why should they help you infringe on their copyrighted identity? I wasn't inclined to help you either, for the same reason. There are actually two distinct, modified typefaces in your sample—Miss Nobody has already identified Happy Camp3r (stroke added and joints rounded), while Club is set in a similarly modified roman of another typeface that was released in 2008. I urge you, however, to find your own style for whatever you want to create—people often quote Oscar Wilde on this topic, but almost always leave off the end of the statement (italics mine): “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.”

I've tried to find '5', but I can't. It is possible it might be some older version of the font where '5' was a bit different, but that's just a wild guess.

Thank you for your advice on this Ralf and Kevin.

Awesome, thanks!

The ampersand (and other cursive type on the other samples on the website) is Bourdos, and the smaller text appears to be Milk and Clay Regular.

For anyone else who may have encountered this issue, I have determined that the Noto fonts are being installed along with new installations and updates of LibreOffice. There is no option in custom installation to NOT install these fonts. This means that on every computer I own, whenever I update LibreOffice I immediately have to go into Windows Fonts and delete the unwanted Noto fonts (which means all of them, since I have never used them and have no need for them).

The ampersand and numerals (the latter in old style form on the original sample) seem to be a match to the sample I posted. Calling this Linotype Baskerville, likely a metal version given how much the baseline jumps. Unfortunately, none of the currently available digital versions of Baskerville or Bulmer are spot-on matches for the printed sample from 40 years ago. Some digital versions don’t even include old style figures (like Libre Baskerville, unfortunately). ITC New Baskerville or Baskerville Neo would be your best bets for approximating the look.

Looks like ARS Novelty.

Looks like Halana.
