  1. Past hour
  2. Thank you for trying. I was afraid of that. You're right; I should have mentioned that in my original post.
  3. Ah, that would have been helpful information to know from the get go. Unfortunately, no—most AI-generated type is an amalgam of many different sources. Most AI engines are not reaching out and pulling in an existing typeface, they are generating something new from multiple sources. Frankenfonts, if you will. I could find no exact match to Cape. Similar: Reynaldista, Silent Noise Font Duo Script Regular While FLORIDA resembles many typefaces (like Spire, Pall Mall, and Niagara), I also could not find a match.
  4. I think the branding document I'm going off of was generated using AI, if that helps anybody. I'm hoping that the fonts exist.
  5. Looks like the alphabet sample is Great Vibes, thanks. However, I'm looking for the script in the word Cape. Sorry for the confusion. I didn't notice they were different. EDIT: Looks like the alphabet sample under FLORIDA is also different than the word FLORIDA, so please ignore the alphabet samples. I only included them because they were on the branding document but they're not going to be helpful.
  6. Today
  7. The script typeface appears to be Great Vibes (narrower)/ Good Vibrations (wider). Your sample appears to be even narrower than Great Vibes.
  8. Jason, the Cape sample you posted is not the same typeface pictured directly below it, showing a full alphabet. Do you want us to try to identify both, or just he complete alphabet?

  10. It is a brand new company that is in the process of launching. They don't have a website or any collateral designed as of yet, and I'm afraid I'm not able to post the company name because of a confidentiality agreement. I apologize; I know that probably doesn't help very much.
  11. What’s the name of the company that brand document belongs to?
  12. Good evening, wonderful people. I'm usually fairly good at identifying fonts, but these two are proving very difficult. These two fonts are from a brand identity document but the source of the original fonts are unknown. I'm afraid I don't have a whole lot of information. My client just really likes these fonts but they couldn't tell me where they got them, and the only format available of the document is a PNG. The first is a very pretty, flowing brush script: For the second, I have a name: Cinzel Condensed. Problem solved, right? Well, unfortunately I've checked multiple foundries and haven't been able to track this down, so I suspect the name is incorrect. It's a very pretty condensed serif: Any ideas? Many, many thanks in advance for any help. Blessings, Jason Hackwith

  20. Quite similar, but not as delicate: Sabellicus. A bit more about the style. Somewhat similar: Lingwood EF, Hoefler Titling Light, Requiem Fine
  21. Please help mi identify a digital typeface, the closest possible to the font from this book cover. The book COSMOGRAPHIAE by Sebastian Munster was printed in Basel, Switzerland, 1544.

  23. It’s probably just badly printed oder scanned, distorting the actual outlines.
  24. Hello, That is exactly what I meant. TNR seems to be the correct font, but some of the strokes on the letter still do not match completely. Is it possible that the TNR used in my letter was customized? This seems like a new technique to me, and I’m really impressed by it.
  25. I see no problems with Times New Roman. If you more definite answers, a better image resolution is necessary.
  26. Dear Friends, Pleased to launch this contest on 2026-06-03 Juggle 16-petal flower & Win Jawi dynamic fonts https://maryamsoft.com/FontShop/fonts.aspx That's right: Just juggle 32 6-letter Malay Jawi words ending with ng in curves, starting with the numbered space and ending near the flower center. Each numbered space begins two (2) words: one to be entered clockwise, the other to be entered counterclockwise. https://goodmami.org/rumi-jawi-web/index.html Happy juggling and All the Best with Flowers
  27. Thank you for this. However, I tried Times New Roman, but the result looked very different. The letters on the letter seem more spaced out, while Times New Roman looks thicker. Do you mean it might be a custom font? Thank you for taking the time to look into this.
  28. Every internet source got the story of Lorem Ipsum wrong. The Rabbit Hole YouTube channel set out to find the answers.

  31. The first sample appears to be Times New Roman. The second sample is harder to pin down (not a very clean sample). Neue Rain Light is similar, but it is likely something more generic.
  32. I would like to thank Kevin Thompson and Bradford Wollte for those links. I am very happy to have found (and downloaded) those books as references. And, with those as a starting point, I also found and downloaded a 2016 U.S. Government Printing Office Style Guide. Not a replacement for the Chicago Manual of Style, but nice to have as a supplemental/alternate reference.
  33. For those interested in this topic in the future, the United States Government Publishing Office provides PDFs of two type books published by the Government Printing Office (GPO) in 1921 and 1931, which contain specimens of Century Expanded as well as other type faces used by the GPO at that time. They can be found through the search on GovInfo. Here are the direct links: 1921, 1931. One of these is likely the exact type face used in the publication I was inquiring about. The United States Geological Survey also provides PDF copies of specimen books of type faces used in their maps, one from 1947, here or here, one from 1977, here or here, both of which also contain specimens of Century Expanded. For anyone interested in type faces in US government publications, these are certainly valuable sources. Thank you to Kevin Thompson for identifying the type face for me and for pointing my research in this direction. Now all I have to do is recreate that type face…
