  • FONT ID for very skinny text thank you

    Posted by Jean Oakley on November 21, 2016 at 10:03 am

    morning everyone, this is my latest font to be stumped with. I thought it was century gothic (in red) but as you can see its not quite right. The k is different and the whole weight of the text is a little on the heavy side. All suggestions welcome, many thanks jean

    Hi Gill, thank you for your comment the font
    Avant garde book has not got the k right also the centre of the w is lower on the tracing. I had looked at that one and also Aubum which is again close but not the correct font.

    Your original match looks good- couldn’t you use that and just edit the ‘r’ slightly?

    Hi Nick, if you look at the two next to each other the w is lower in the middle, the r is not quite right, the h and t are longer at the top the g has more space with the tail and the k is not the same. The text overall is slightly heavier. I could and will if no one comes up with the font ID alter what i have now. The issue really is i have a telephone number also in this font so would need to alter that aswell. Its not needed for a week so i have the time but thought id give the uk sign experts a challenge first :thumbsup:
