It's a Dingbat font which allows you to replace individual characters with symbols without having to import any specific graphics/use images.

Pakistan's Prime Minister is gonna go to jail because of fonts

http://www.alphr.com/politics/1006281/how-the-calibri-font-could-take-down-pakistan-s-prime-minister

tl;dr he's under investigation for various kinds of corruption, and to help prove his innocence, his daughter produced some documents dated to 2006 that supposedly show his finances are clean. But the documents are printed in Calibri, which wasn't commercially available until the release of Office 2007 in January of that year. Whoops.

Is this the place for font identification? I sure hope it is! Because do I have a nice, flowy script font that isn't at all tacky that needs to be ID'ed!



Any thoughts on which fontface this is?

Whathtefont has failed me, so I turn to you for help:



Any ideas? Alternatively, any suggestions for a similar but simpler/easier to read typeface would be good as this is meant to go on a lanyard.

I prefer to type whatever text in dafont.com and browse their fonts, rather than going solely by someone else's font choice, as it may not work with whatever text you want on the lanyard.

ie: https://www.dafont.com/mtheme.php?id=4&text=Something+Awful

Thanks, this is perfect! I actually found a variant of the font that looks like someone took the blur tool from Photoshop to it and pretended it was something else. I won't end up using it, but it gives me a starting point if I want to find that actual font.

For reference: https://www.dafont.com/old-englished-boots.font?text=One+Eyed+Jacques

Here's a font from my "I think I know it but I can't figure it out" file. Any thoughts on which font this is? Very generic-looking, but can't quite ID it.

The logo text, what font is this? It's comic sans-esque but it's not comic cans. Maybe it's some kind of modified comic sans, but I thought I'd check.

Edit: A chunked up Segoe Print?

Edit2: Yeah, that's pretty much it. Close enough. Thanks for all the help, everyone!

Edit: Found it! It is Museo Sans 500

Swedish style? No.

It has to be Zlatan-style.

I don't even think it would be thaaat bad if it was consistent, but it looks like it's cobbled together from 3 different fonts
