I created this on my MAC so I KNOW I have it... But, since it is a .JPG I cannot get info on the font. I have compared (twice) my existing library to it but cannot match. Notice the distinct cut in the serif on the "C." There are a few other highlights that should make it memorable to someone...

HELP!!!

Oh yuck - I hate these request....

Here's what I would do.

 Open up a document and type the word, using the first font in your library that you believe it *might be*(It's obviously not Arial, or Ant Farm, for example.
 Highlight and change to the next in your library it might be.
 Go fats, and go through your library list
 Don't analyze each and every one, but keep the ones that have similar look.
 Once you are done - THEN look to see which one it is.

IF you have it in your library - then you have it. I have a lot of fonts, but not so many that I couldn't do this exercise in a few minutes, and I have no organization in my system - just the alphabetical list.


In other words.....
It's your font - YOU find it!

Not sure if they're the same on the Mac as a PC, but it's very similar to the italicized version of either "Bell MT" or "Bodoni MT" on my PC.

Pate... Very good!

Happiegrrrl... did that and... thanks.

kunlun_shan... Cool site! I came up witht he same results and it definitely seems to be Warnock. Strange thing is... I remember HAVING that font but a search of the system says, "nope." Weird. Well, the first part of the puxxle is now complete. Now I just have to FIND the font!

Weirdness continues... I have the FULL Warnock family in my FONTS folder... where it belongs. But Illustrator and Photoshop do not see them.

Okay... so how does an entire font family self-lock itself so that I have to go in and change the rights for each of the members? This is weirdness!

It looks a lot like "Lucinda Calligraphy"

Look in your Font Book

Whoops! Stuck in Russin typing English! Anyway, thanks all... it was definitely Warnock. I had it on the system but somehow I mysteriously lost my permissions to it and it locked itself! Had to unlock and change rights on 20 faces today. Weird...

Werner... not that you have yet, but if you read this thread... please check your e-mail on an unrelated matter...

Locker... That is not the REAL font... That is a FAKE version of the font.

EDIT: I knew THAT would not last long around here nowadays...
