little help.

Oui, la Zapfino One est la bonne, Daaams

Zapfino...

thanks everyone, despite it being wrong, they're sticking with Italican. I guess they dont want to pay for another font.

Italican is a commercial font too,

This is Zapfino Linotype One. If you want it, it's only available from the Linotype site. IT costs about $35 per set and there are 4 or 5 sets to the Zapfino set.
