27/02/2018 alle 10:37  [risposta]  What font is this?




Scout Condensed is also a possible substitute. Better than the other suggestions for _1_ and _2_. But the waistline is too high and _3_ has a different top section.

Carattere suggerito: Scout



Another similar font, some letters are closer than Babel, others such as _1_ and _3_ have different top sections.

Carattere suggerito: Rift



Watch and clock makers have traditionally used custom designs for their numbers as part of the creation of their brand image.
This practice may have continued into the smart phone era.
As for fonts available to the public, closest match found is Babel, using the capital letter _O_ for zero.

Carattere suggerito: Babel

26/02/2018 alle 09:53  [risposta]  What is the font?



25/02/2018 alle 19:50  [risposta]  PLEASE FONT

This is the wordmark for a wine making company.
I found a high resolution image of another of its labels. Here is the wordmark, split into two lines for presentation.



The color inlay, both in your image and mine, make the letters look less bold than they actually are.

I prepared a second image that converts the colored inlay and the grey portions into plain black.



AFAIK no publicly available font is a match for these bold letters.

Except for the big triangular terminals, there is some similarity to Times Ten Bold, with some letters such as _R_ condensed to 80%,

but Times is NOT THE FONT used to make the image.

Carattere suggerito: Times Ten

24/02/2018 alle 16:00  [risposta]  PyeongChang 2018 logo font

If you want something similar in a font offered to the the public, I suggest Global -- which is a rough approximation of the letters shown in the pdf cited by Luc Devroye, including earmarks like _RGQkrs_. For _a_ clip the tail off of _g_. Global has vertical instead of angled terminals on _CGegs_ etc.

Carattere suggerito: Global

Some similarities for _oreit_

Carattere suggerito: Learning Curve BV


23/02/2018 alle 20:36  [risposta]  Need help with this font

Reminds me of a style called rundgotisch, rotunda or Spanish Gothic. As used, for example in San Marco and Weish Rundgotish, but they are not a match.
Still looking.

21/02/2018 alle 21:38  [risposta]  help please

Font released in 1963.

Carattere Identificato: Compacta Light

Jackie, yes, a raised _f.alt_ would permit an _ff_ effect with a connected cross stroke. Increase the leading on _f.alt_ and there is no need for a space between _f_ and _f.alt_.

@WinsorPrint
Kaufmann's monotone thickness is close to _forfeit_.
I agree that the _e_ in Kaufmann is close to _forfeit_, but the other letters are mostly too angular and the font has a stiffer feel than _forfeit_.

Jackie, I agree that we need a monotone _f_.

I vectorized the _f_ and _e_. My results:



I made the space glyph narrow [about a third of the caps height, e.g. 220/700] and used a double space between the combinations _fe_, _ef_, _ff_ and _ee_.

The _fe_ matches the spacing in _forfeit_

The other combinations, including the first _ff_, are also spaced the same as in _forfeit_.

This _ff_ would look ugly in a font, but placing a space in the middle of _ff_, as shown in the second _ff_ would work fine. If this is a font, the possibility exists that it includes a ligature to deal with the _ff_ issue.
