Ok, interesting case, it is the time for a new little lesson. The font you're suggesting is the good one. But it seems to be an illegal copy of Liana (can anyone confirm this, although it's really obvious ?). Which is why you couldn't find a decent link on a legal website. So sometimes, if you don't find links, it "could" be a similar case. Not always, of course, but it could be. Anyway, I've changed the name you've given and put the link too. (Edit : well, not quite yet )

Oh, OK.

Weird thing here, not a copy...

Oh, so is this a case of typeface being scanned from a catalogue, and redrawn by someone else ?

Please read what MikeF had to say about this font. (You see, there are many, many ripoffs of it)

Thanks for sharing, Jackie. So, when you say "rip-off", you don't mean a shameless copy - opens a font, renames it, saves it - but two (or more) different scans or versions of a similar drawing, am I right ?

So, after reading MikeF's post, it happens that Malvolio was right too in the end, wasn't he ? And I was wrong by suggesting that Lainie Day (made by a Japanese person on a rainy day ? ) was an illegal copy.

As I told it before, not a copy, indeed they admit:

"The typeface was created for TypeMarket in 1998 by Natalia Vasilyeva. Based on Lainie of Soft Horizons".

That's why I said weird thing, usually the things are backwards...

(No time to read the thread of Mike F. at this moment)...

Paratype prend des fontes existantes et ajoute les caractères cyrillique.

Lady Script est une 'fonte' de FilmoType.
On peut la trouver sur 3 autres noms.

Claude knows well this, he suffered it with "his" "KB Chopin Script"...

Non, Paratype fait ça légalement et avec l'accord de la fonderie.

Je vais revenir plutard avec un exemple de 2 version différente de cette fonte.
