  • Identify this common font

    #1
    I have a crappy jpg and can't figure out this font - it's got to be common - the closest i have gotten is arial. One thing i loved about using corel draw is when you bring up the fonts they come up as the exact word you are writing - so much easier to match fonts that way. But i'm on Illustrator now.
    I tried Identifont and it came up with a million wrong answers.

    I'm talking about the word "insurance"

    Another question - why is my image not coming up - what did i do wrong. The link works.

      Search the frequently asked questions/resources threads on here and I predict you will find your answer.

        you are using HTML and need to use mcode - see HERE, post #2.

        As LogoMechanix said, it would be very helpful for you to look over THESE threads, which discuss frequent questions and problems.

        As for the font identification, have you tried the tools listed HERE? (It's a sticky in this forum and is quite helpful in font identification.)

            you're using [url] tags and you need to use [img] instead.

                the final tag should say [/img]

                if you edit your previous post to fix that, it should be all set.

                    oh my god - i did it!
                    Still don't know the font though - i tried both identifont and what the font and it didn't come up - i'm just using arial or helvetica - it is really close.

                                I actually ended up going with RichCopy. It's free, only overwrites files that have been changed since last backup (quicker backups,) and doesn't compress or pack the files. My brother who is an IT tech...

                                Yep, I had a look at this forum on an iPad this morning and looked pretty good. Doesn't work with Tapatalk, but maybe we don't need it to.

                                Actually, not so bad for a beginner. The thing is, it's not only a matter of doing it "correctly;" it's one of those things that simply takes practice. It's no different than when you were new...

                                I use Cobain Backup http://www.cobiansoft.com/index.htm

                                It's real easy to use and doesn't change your files in any way.

                                Aww, we had a bunny when I was a kid. I loved to trans it out by rubbing between its ears. We also had another rabbit. That rabbit was a bit more formidable. He chased horses....
