Teacher needing font identified!

12/07/2012 a las 03:54

Hello! I am a teacher in Indiana. I am trying to identify this font so that I can use it to make activities for my students. I know that it is similar to the Futura family and/or the Twentieth Century family, but there are certain letters and marks (i.e. the lowercase "t"s size, the question mark "?", and the rounded lowercase "a") that I need which are not included in these families. Can anyone help me with this?? I would be greatly appreciative!!

Century Gothic for sure. Bold. I'm sure you have it, since most fonts you mentioned come on PC's automatically.

Thanks for the replies! I have tried century gothic, however the question mark in that font looks like an "s". I am needing the traditional loop-and-stick question mark with a dot underneath!! I should probably also mention that the lowercase "q" should have a curl on it, towards the right side!

Can you point us to your source if it's available online?

Sorry. I was sure it was Century Gothic. I couldn't see the question mark or the "q". I wish I could help you!

Which q?

The source is not online. It is posted in a textbook program that I am using with my students.

I can see that the font is very similar to the futura fonts, however there are differences... the lowercase "t" should reach to the top, the lowercase "q" (not pictured) should have a curved tail to the right instead of just a stick, the capital "J" should have a cross bar on the top, the lowercase "a" should be a circle-and-stick, and the question mark should be the traditional loop-and-stick with a dot, instead of the "s" looking mark.

Please let me know if you can find anything like this... or if you know of anyone who may be able to make this font for me. I have pdf's of the font in question and would absolutely love to have this font for my upcoming school year...

Where is that pdf?

Open that PDF, right button --> Properties (or Document properties) --> new window will open, check "Fonts" part there.

Here is a sample download in pdf format. Here is the web address for a pdf link download: http://www.hwtears.com/files/LineItUp_Sample.pdf
The body text within the document is what I am referring too. Disregard the "letter card" pages, but the first few pages and the last are the ones that contain the body text. I am pretty sure that all of the lowercase letters and the question mark symbol would be located within the document. Also, if you notice how the headings are in bold and the text is regular...I am interested in having the option of both...bold and regular faced.
Thanks so much for taking a look.

I did the right click, properties button...
the fonts that are listed are a bunch of futura fonts...however they all have HWT in front of them...which happens to be the name of the company that publishes the material.
Example: HWTFuturaBook is one of them listed...there are more, but only different variations of the HWTFutura font (i.e. bold, semi-bold, italic, etc.)
Is there a way to save those fonts to my computer from within the pdf?
Thanks!

That's Futura. There are too many Futuras HWT Futura.

Would anybody know where to find this font available for download or purchase...online?

I'm looking into the adobe forums...and thank you so much for that link.
And pilaster...what exactly can i do with the branding guidelines? Is there a way to download from this pdf as well?


13/07/2012 a las 00:36

I refer you to post No. 16 in this thread...but the brand guide has ALL of the fonts used in the HWT materials.

Thank you all so very much for all of your help.
I am now going to attempt to learn more about PDF Font Extraction... Sounds like a lot of fun...and a lot of TIME!!!

Thanks again...
