Re: OT -- Need to identify this font.

[steve harley]

that font is a real bastard; it has letter forms from the stereotypical
Bauhaus typeface, but stretched lower case and high ascenders from some
of the more exaggerated display fonts; i can't find any font with that
weird lowercase g, nor any with both the Herbert Bayer symmetrical lower
case y _and_ the high ascenders

Re: OT -- Need to identify this font.

The height difference between upper and lower case letters in
exaggerated in PJ's font. The letters I find most distinctive are the
upper case 'C' and the lower case 'g' and 'y'.

Bauhaus has a similar 'y' with a centered vertical descender.

The lower case 'g' may be the key, since I haven't found another font that
has a similar shape.

A couple of the letters are similar but almost all have significant 
differences, and none of the Bauhaus derivatives I was able to find were 
even close.


As an interesting side note.  The only font with the name Sublime now 
searchable on the web was designed in 1997 and is based on a font that 
was designed by a relative.

Re: OT -- Need to identify this font.

[P. J. Alling]

Thanks for the suggestions but I've already been there.  I think both 
sites use identical engines with a different front end the results are 
so similar.  The big problem with them is they only try to match to 
commercial fonts.


They probably get a cut in sales which is how they keep going.

I don't remember if this was a totally royalty free font of if it was 
restricted to free for personal use only, or was shareware with a 
limited time free license.


It might have been shareware with the author asking for a donation, 
which I'd happily do now, but back then I tried it for a while then 
decided to change.


Looking back I have to ask myself, since I like it a lot, why did stop 
using it.  I don't remember.
