1- Intersate
2- Sabon
I tried to order these online , the problem is that my credit card is international & the minute the credit server recognizes that it declines the order. I am in Kuwait & these things are not that easy to get here.
I truly appreciate any help .
Regards to all,
Al

I did a search and found Sabon but it was $105. It looks a lot like Times New Roman.

Both are outrageous prices

If you send me a PM, I can email you the Sabon font collection (there's about 8 different styles, if I recall). They are Type 1 fonts.
I don't have Interstate - but I do have a clone (it's called Blue Highway). It is not quite as crisp as Interstate, and it needs a bit of kerning. But if you only have a few words to do, then it is acceptable. Go to http://www.typemotion.de/material/fonts/blue_highway.zip and have a look for yourself
Oh and if you have ever wanted to identify a certain font, or want to look for a close match, try What The Font at http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/

That 'interstate' looks an awful lot like Corel's Switzerland (helvetica) bold compressed.. I'm sure that you could also use a standard corel supplied font for the other one as well.. Most people that ask for a particular font, unless it's 'very' unique, wouldn't recognize it if they fell over it...

Thank you all for the kind replies.
A nice someone from this great forum of ours read my post & emailed me the needed fonts which I showed to my customer this morning & he was surprised how I managed to get them so fast :eek: He didn't know that I had a US connection :cool:

Al
