    Posted by ian rankin on 24 November 2004 at 22:16

    Would anyone have a Trajan roman font usable in Signlab. I have the Siglab ones but they are not quite right. The one I need has a few differences like the cap W is like two V’s crossed unlike a normal open W. It is probably medium not quite bold in weight. TTF , VEF format

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for reply Carrie. Are they Signlab fonts as I may have them.
    If you could check the cap W as it is the one is different it looks like two V’s crossed
    Trajan is the typeface

    No sorry Ian the letter “W” does not look like two V’s 🙁 hopefully someone else may be able to help, have it or tell you where the best place is to get it?

    Based on yoru descriptions of the W looking like 2 overlapped Vs it may be a font called Cresci. Take a look at the following site… it is very useful.

    Carrie / Keith thanks for reply. Useful font site Keith but couldn’t find one just right. I am trying to match a brass plaque which was engraved on a pantograph machine a good few years ago so it could be quite difficult to get the typestyle spot on I may have to compromise.

    Many thanks for help.

    The Adobe Garamond font has the W as you describe it above.

    Something similar here…
