  1. Font ID Request - Sort of Gotham but not

    Nexa is a little closer of a match than Gotham. I have the Nexa and Nexa Slab families. The ends of the "S" in Nexa open up more horizontal than the sample image. The "S" in Montserrat is even more horizontally opened.
  2. Font ID Request - Sort of Gotham but not

    Sorry for the small size of the attached sample image. I cropped it out of a customer provided PNG image. MyFonts' What the Font filter isn't providing any accurate matches. The lettering reminds me of Gotham, but the curves in the "S" are somewhat more squared.
  3. Opinions on backlit signs with printers that print white

    Digital prints from printers that can print layers of white and color definitely look a lot better when back-lit than the output from printers that can't print white. They don't wash out anywhere near as bad. The color saturation still isn't quite as deep as cut translucent vinyl though. Some...
  4. Corel Corp is re-branding as "Alludo"

    Vector Capital owned Corel for roughly 18 years, from 2003 to 2019.
  5. panel size

    I remember Sam's Club selling those things for around $300 each. This is more than 10 years ago. LED variable message displays can look great and be very effective. The problem is too many customers buy units that are too small and/or too low in resolution to be effective. Plus too many don't...
  6. FONT ID x3

    The sample in the "block.pdf" file looks like a modified version of ITC Machine. The "brother.pdf" sample looks like an old "analog" headstone typeface, not something commonly used in digital form. Poppl-Pontifex looks a little similar to it, but is not a match. The "robert.pdf" sample also...
  7. Font ID

    The letter spacing in that sample image is just terrible.
  8. Yikes...................................... anybody know it ??

    Antonio and Anton are available at Google Fonts. There's a OTF Variable version of it there as well. Big Shoulders looks a lot like Antonio, plus it has some interesting inline and stencil versions. The Google Fonts site is actually getting to be really pretty good. It's just too bad a bunch of...
  9. Corel Corp is re-branding as "Alludo"

    Yes, KKR (as I mentioned earlier). Corel was owned by Vector Capital (another private equity firm) since the early 2000's. This was not long after Corel's founder, Michael Cowpland was accused of insider trading and left the company. Vector Capital sold Corel to KKR in 2019.
  10. Corel Corp is re-branding as "Alludo"

    Story Link: Corel Rebrands as Alludo Apparently product names, such as CorelDRAW or WinZIP will remain the same. But I get the feeling this act is a bit like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Maybe the cost of this rebranding exercise will give the bosses at KKR and Corel, or Alludo...
  11. Script Font ID Request

    The typeface used in the attached example of client-provided artwork, looks familiar but I can't find anything that matches. I need to re-create the artwork since whoever made the original design apparently did so in Photoshop. This is for a sponsor sign containing 13 or so other businesses...
  12. Font ID Needed for Western Wood Type Lettering

    I didn't think it was a commercial font file. Oh well, $10 is pretty inexpensive.
  13. Font ID Needed for Western Wood Type Lettering

    Any ideas on the attached sample image? I looked through all the "western" fonts on DaFont and a couple other freebie sites. Either I accidentally scrolled past it or can't find it.
  14. Illustrator Performance

    Since when is a new version of a graphics application "faster" than a previous one? If anything the going rule is newer versions of graphics applications will require ever more powerful computer system hardware requirements.
  15. army font help

    That "ARMY" sample does not look like anything official connected to the US Army. I do a lot of work for various clients aboard Fort Sill and I've never seen that lettering treatment before. It just looks like some kind of custom treatment that originated in a random place, perhaps some sign...
  16. Does graphic card matter?

    If buying a brand new computer I would recommend getting one with at least a reasonably decent dedicated graphic board. Anything with an "integrated" GPU chip that sucks on system memory is something to be avoided. Prices are finally coming down on higher powered graphics boards, thanks in part...
  17. Anyone recognize this typestyle?

    It's pretty easy to see East Market is a rip-off of Bodega Sans Oldstyle.
  18. Anyone recognize this typestyle?

    Actually it looks like the Small Capitals style of Bodega Sans Oldstyle Black, with only small capitals typed.
  19. Font Help Art Deco-ish font

    A.R.K. Ramos doesn't have individual electronic font files, but they do have a 10 page PDF catalog of typefaces that can be downloaded. The Huxley Modern 511 typeface is included. The PDF contents are vector-based with raw letter shapes. The letters can be extracted to scale and assemble into...
  20. Drop down Ads

    In a normal web browser setup on a desktop PC (without a bunch of ad block add-ons) there is always some pop-up ad that rises up at the bottom edge of the web browser window. An arrow on the upper left corner of the ad can be clicked to make it drop down out of view. But if the page is refreshed...
