Member Kar… Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I am going to design a new set of keycaps for my WASD keyboard and I saw the attached picture on WASD's Twitter. I really liked the fonts on the picture. Unfortunately they were not able to tell me which font was it, and the didnt't held any information on who posted the keyboard picture, so my last oportunnity is trying to identify the font with some help, if I want to use it. I would like to identify the fonts on this keyboard, particullarly the one in the white keys. This picture was uploaded on 2018. Could anyone be able to help me? Thank you Link to comment
Member Gre… Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I wonder if it is an in-house font and so can't be identified. Link to comment
Solution Member Ric… Posted January 13, 2019 Solution Share Posted January 13, 2019 The angle of the photo doesn’t help, but, except for |&|, Quicksand looks fairly similar. Correction: the version on Google Fonts seems to be a better match, and it also has the right type of |&|. Link to comment
Member Gre… Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Maybe a slightly modified Quicksand. Link to comment

If its not, its really close. Should be enough information for my purpose. Thank you very much for the help! Link to comment
Member Kar… Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 out of curiosity, the font of the special keys (CTRL, CAPS LOCK...), is that Century Gothic? Link to comment
Member Gre… Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 It looks like it is Quicksand or something very close to it. Link to comment

Ralf Herrmann Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I see no reason to believe the dark and white keys would use different fonts. https://type.dt1.org/render/?family=Quicksand&text=Caps$spaceLock 1 Link to comment
Member Kar… Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 you are right, I don't know why I thought it was another. Thank you! Link to comment
