font help please,

Posted by Hugh Potter on 22 February 2008 at 11:00

hi all, does anyone know what this font is please?

it’s quite similar to ‘book antiqua’ but condensed, and not as bold,

just the words ‘PICKED’ and HOTELS would be great.
(cdr12 or less, aiV6 or less, eps etc!)

thanks.

i think i will get away with either. however, i don’t think any are 100%, if you look at the top of the E, there’s a little serif kicking up!

I thought it was the font shown at the bottom, which is defo Trajan.
The bit above it is Palatino, as suggested.

ok, the black font at the top is book antiqua, the dark grey font beneath is the font i require!

thanks!
