  2. I'm thinking some sort of Goudy Old Style. A free alternative for that would be Sorts Mill Goudy by Barry Schwartz. Not an exact match, but fairly close.
  3. As stated in the title, the book is Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning. It's the Touchstone (Simon & Schuster) 3rd edition with a copyright year of 1984. Here is a random paragraph from the book: I would like to know the exact font name, and also any free alternatives if possible.

    What font is used in this forum?

    Yes, that’s it. I just did a qualified guess based on what I saw in my Norwegian version of Safari.

    Also, I'd consider purchasing a non-commercial, personal use license to FDI Qualia Serif if it were made available.

    What font is used in this forum?

    Thank you, Ralf, for the information. And thanks, too, Bjørn, for suggesting the WhatFont extension, which I like very much. BTW, on my version of Safari (17.4.1), the sequence you mentioned seems to be Safari > Settings > Advanced > Show features for web developers. Or at least I assume that's the same thing you're talking about. Now if I just had a spare £40 so I could buy a license to Robert Green's Doves Type.
  8. Amazing. thank you all so much!! 'Clifton' is a beautful font! Nice one @Kevin Thompson🙂
  9. Ah, Clifton (a revival of Athenian Extended from 1889) appears to be used for Mushroom Chocolates.
  10. Seconding MissNobody’s ID of of a modified Caslon Graphique. Mushroom Chocolates is very similar to JMH Cajita, but not quite a match.
  11. It kind of reminded me a little of a carglass firm we have here in Scandinavia. Also custom.
  12. On the site it says it's a custom typeface, the most similar I can find is Caslon Graphique.
  13. Hello! Can anyone help identify the font used for 'alice' and also the smaller font for 'mushroom chocolates'? Link here - https://cristiestevens.com/alice-case-study Thanks!

    Fontstand—a new way of font licensing

    I am basically sympathetic to the concept, but boy do they need some high impact headliners on their poster. One true flagship per category (Questa, Graphik, Bree Serif, Drone and Nitti) is not enough. We need to see true heavy hitters like real Garamonds, Frutigers, Futuras, Bodonis, Baskervilles, Caslons, Goudys, , Universes, Gills, Helveticas, DINs and so forth. As it is, this looks very much like a collection of replacement fonts. Imagine having House Industries on board and not getting Neutraface or Eames. That just makes no sense.

    @Ralf Herrmann I also recommend that you do whatever it was that you did to the FDI Elfenfraktur font (which I have purchased) on its demo page to Qualia Serif on this site. That would stop sneaky b*stards like yours truly from snatching it from this website. 😉 PS. I respect intellectual property and will never use your font for anything public. Perhaps for the odd birthday invitation, but that's about it. I'd buy it if it was for sale, though.

    What font is used in this forum?

    FDI Qualia Serif. I recommend activating the Safari > Preferences > Advanced > Show functions for Developers option in Safari if you're on a Mac. Also, the browser extension WhatFont? is a great tool to look up fonts you are curious about.

    It’s a custom typeface made for this purpose and currently not publicly available.

    Which Typeface Software Manager for Mac OS?

    1 upvote for Typeface 3 from me.
  20. Question is in the subject. I came here to browse a bit and found the forum font to be very nice. If you identify it somewhere on the site, I didn't find it. Thanks! Nice site, by the way.

    Which Typeface Software Manager for Mac OS?

    FontExplorer X Pro 7 and Suitcase Fusion 10 both have good reputations, but you'll want to look at the specific features and interface changes in these newer versions to see if they address your concerns about presentation and functionality. When it comes to building software, developers often release significant updates to ensure their applications run smoothly on the latest operating systems. Checking the version histories and user feedback for these updates can provide insight into how well they integrate with new OS features and might help you decide.
  22. A local authority has announced it will ban apostrophes on street signs to avoid problems with computer systems.
  23. Do you have more samples? With the resolution of this image it’s impossible to identify the font. Or to put it another way: any common sans-serif design will match that if it’s typeset so small or in such a low resolution. You could just use a system font like Helvetica or something like DIN or Bahnschrift for a more geometric feel.

    Font identification sites

    Fantastic! Many, many thanks. This will save me a TON of work!
  25. Hey all, So, the font in question is the one in this image. Basically, I'm trying to create a novelty stamp for wedding invitations in a Soviet-esque style, but I really want this exact font as it fits the part. I think this is from a Serbian government office, something of that nature... I've seen other stamps and they basically all use this exact font. The closest match I've found is a font called Queen of Clubs, which does look similar-ish but is way more narrow... and the effect is lost somewhat. I've tried all automatic font ID sites, and nothing comes up, and also researched manually heavily... I've been designing for 15 years, and I don't think I've ever actually not been able to ID a font, so this is quite irritating actually. Thanks in advance, and if anyone can get it, I'll happily get them a coffee.

    Font from LE REX in Nogent-le-Rotrou (France)'s logo.

    What’s strange though, is that in your first sample, the E in CINÉMA isn’t rounded like in REX and the text below it. The rounded E looks more like it belongs in Exo 2.0 or thereabouts.
