Interlocking Script Font

[Scott Shepherd]

Anyone have a source for an Interlocking Script font? One like you'd use for monograms, where it's all capital letters and the tails all run into each other.

The problem with the script files I have or have seen all tilt the letters to the right slightly. I need a fancy script letter that is dead straight up letters.

I'm more than happy to purchase it, I just need to find it first.

Do you want it for monograms?

Scott, if you need just a single I can make it for your from my Newing-Hall fonts.

[Scott Shepherd]

Yes, for monograms. I already have some of Harold's fonts. His interlocking one is right on the edge of making my customer happy. Not exactly the "swirliness" they want.

I appreciate the one off offer, but it's a long term, ever changing order once I can finalize things with the right fonts for him.

The fonts seem to be easy to find sample of, but hard to find fonts files for.

[Joe Pelonio]

Look at Brody. Also, some of them you might be able to straighten. After typing, convert to curves, then slant it back to become more vertical like this:

[Scott Shepherd]

Thanks Joe, I'm not interested in having to straighten them. Too many to do.

Somewhere there has to be a font, since I can see examples of it all over the internet. Just can't find the font for sale.

[Dee Gallo]

Have you gone to fonts101.com? They've got tons of fonts, some free, some for sale.

Scott,
This one is really nice. I use it alot. Price is pretty good.

Thanks Jerry, too much lean to the right. Here's an image of what I'm talking about. Sorry to be so picky, but a page with this font was dropped on my desk and that's what the customer wants. We've ironed out 10 other fonts for various fonts for him to offer and his last point was "I have to have that interlocking script font, it's the last thing we need completed before we can go forward with this project".

See how they are perfectly straight up? That's what I need, plus the long tails for all the letters.

This is one I have called Parchment...

[Jerry Allen]

You can skew the font by clicking on the center with the pick tool and grabbing one of the horizontal nodes, or use the Envelope effect. First one is fast and easy and can be constrained (Ctrl key) for consistency if desired.

[Jack Harper]

Have you tried uploading it to whatthefont.com?

[Mike Null]

Scott
That doesn't match up to anything I have but could be a pantograph font.

It seems a little unusual in that the larger letter is a three line and the smaller two line.

Scott,
Checked with the experts and it looks to them like Vine Monogram.
I will PM with the link.
Blessings,
Jack

This was already answered.... seven years ago!!

[Kev Williams]

Steve, that font looks like New Hermes Interlocking Script- I may have a TT version of it, I'm looking...

[Kev Williams]

I can't put it on the board, so I put it on my server, hopefully you can download from the link below it and install it-

It will work as a vector line drawing, or you thicken up the lines and raster it.
BE AWARE, that to make this font work as a TT font, most if not all lines are doubled-up, so it will vector TWICE at once--

<edit> this one has 3-line lower case so it not exactly like your sample, but very close. I think they're the same otherwise...

[Jamie Olger]

It was me! I was searching for my own knowledge, same font I'm trying to use.

[Bruce Clumpner]

Glad you did... Picked up the set of fonts for my own use...Thanks
