    Font Help

    I need to engrave some name tags and match this font. I've looked everywhere I can think of but can't find anything even close.

    Any help would be appreciated

    I couldn't find anything close either, but one look at the font
    and you can tell why.

    Is your customer the mother of the font designer?

    No, it is not a TT or open font.

    How many name tags do you have to make?

    I have nine now and it will be an ongoing job. I guess I'll have to find something close that they will be happy with.

    Thank you for your help!

    Here's another source: inkydeals.com. They're running a sale today for 1000 fonts (238 font families) with a commercial license for $25.00. I've bought fonts and graphics from them many times and they're legit. The sale is on the front page of their site.

    When I don't recognise a typeface, I always use this font search service:
    http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
    Based on the image you upload first, the system shows the closets fonts. Very helpful!
