Member vol… Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I am trying to identify the type faces used in this VFD display. The design sheet says that Letraset Sheets 3122 and 3123 were used in the creation of the display. I have attached the drawing snip with the display characters. What I would like is the type face name and whether there are any free or commercial digital equivalents. Thank you! Link to comment
Solution Member Ric… Posted March 28, 2020 Solution Share Posted March 28, 2020 Looking for “liquid crystal” or “LCD” will give you plenty of commercial or free options for the numbers. The small text appears to be a condensed cut of Helvetica. A free alternative would be Liberation Sans Narrow. download at MyFonts Link to comment

Member vol… Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Hi Richard; Thank you so much for your work and suggestions! What is maddening is that I am old enough to remember having a Letraset catalogue that had the fonts by sheet number!! 🙂 Ken Link to comment
