Can anyone identify this font, please?

Dan E

A contact on this board (Chet, who I've lost touch with), did a version of a
text logo for me which is now in use, and I'd like to find out what the font
is, and if it's available in FP2003 or Photoshop; I want to create a
different text logo, for another sister site, but use the same font. The
text logo is located at www.preferredcountry.com - it's the "Preferred
Country Realty" transparent gif just to the right of the company logo and at
the bottom left of the background banner. Any help gratefully received.

TIA

It's definitely *not* part of FrontPage 2003.
I fired up FontViewer and checked the 173 fonts in my machine and it's not there.

Thanks for trying Steve - I have a feeling it might be from Paint Shop Pro -
I just now went back through some old emails and found Chet used that for
his graphics needs.

Hi Dan:

It will take a bit of detective work on your part, but you should be
able to track it down. If you'll conduct a Google/Yahoo search on
"Font ID" you'll see a number of websites dealing in font
identification.

I also recommend that you checkout "comp.fonts" on the News Groups.

There's an entire universe out there dedicated to all things FONT...

PS; Don’t use the prentices in any of the examples.

Good Luck

I looked through the 700 fonts I have, I found only one that was even close, but not close enough. Perhaps you should look for a standard font that works for you. Problem is that fonts can be altered in some programs stretched/slanted/condensed etc...so you may never find it if that was the case.

Dan,

I believe the font is "Tabitha", just like my niece. Now if you ask me where
I got it I'd have to admit to being clueless. I have waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too
many fonts on my system to be able to keep track.

I think I've found a free download for it. Check out
http://www.webpagepublicity.com/free-fonts-t.html. Please notice that there
is a Tabatha as well as a Tabitha. You want the one with the *i*, like my
niece. There seem to be about 4 different fonts spelled that way and this
one seems to be the one like yours. If not, let me know.

Only 700? Tsk, tsk. 953 in my system. I found a cool macro that created a
file that has the font name and a character set of each font. It takes a
while for it to load a document that size but it helps me to identify fonts
a bit easier than not having it.

Those are just the ones that are "installed"...Xara X1 will install even more if I let it.

What macro do you have?

It was just a silly little Word macro. I can try to find the source if you'd
like.
