Title: H&T and ROTR font?
Post by: nessaddict21 on July 29, 2011, 10:55:20 pm
Does anybody have the Heroes & Thieves or the Rabbits on the Run cover font? I dont really know if anybody posted it before or if anyone has it or not. I can see that the ROTR font is similar to Futura, buut its hella expensive.

I have the Futura font if you want that? It's very similar to the font used for the album.

I think the font "Century Gothic", present in all Windows computers, is the font that is closest to ROTR...

No, it's def not a Century Gothic.
I belive it's Mundo Sans.

I know in "Century Gothic" I see differences in the curvature of letters like "C" ...
"Mundo Sans" has an "S" very different  :-\

What the heck is this font. I have read plenty of typography courses on my three years graphic design studies, i usally am good at this. This is irritating, i want this font.

"Century" seems that is also used in "Glee"  :-X

Haha, well it's close, it's an avant garde if you mean in the Glee logo. They are pretty similar.

yeah century is used for glee.
And it does seem close to the ROTR font but ROTR was probably widened.

Its NOT Century Gothic!! And it's definitely not used in the glee logo either. That one is Avant Garde as Harmonium said. You guys need to see the differences.

It's not Avenir as Pushglow said in the other thread. Mundo Sans either, the C is not right. Looks aaaa loottt like Superla (http://www.fontshop.com/fonts/singles/primetype/ptl_superla_light/) too but it's not either.

oh wait i forgot to check it. i assumed it was at first but didnt check if it was. lol i remember using some font for a picture for my friend who liked glee.

I wish the albums would mention the font names at credits. It would put a lot of fans at ease.

i think you got it. it's century gothic, but with maybe 2ish point spacing.
Title: Re: H&T and ROTR font?
Post by: Harmonium on July 31, 2011, 08:42:32 am
No, it still not Century Gothic.

See picture...

^ Yep, not to mention the 'O' and 'E'.

Hmm. I wonder what it could be.
Title: Re: H&T and ROTR font?
Post by: Weisz on July 31, 2011, 09:45:45 am
that graphic wasn't really neccesary.....just look at the ends of the A, N....flat ends vs angle.

Nah, maybe a bit drastic. But the letter i pointed out had the most drastic differences.
Just wanted the whole Century Gothic font out of discussion.

I love typography, so the subject is kind of sensitive to me. Haha. ;)

In Microsoft Works there is a font called "Corbel" It looks pretty close to it.

EDIT: Nevermind, the 'S' is a little different  :(
EDIT: "Myriad Pro" Also looks similar to it but the 'R' and the 'O' Are a little bit different.
Title: Re: H&T and ROTR font?
Post by: nessaddict21 on July 31, 2011, 12:46:41 pm
I tried using the PDF razor & tie made of ROTR to find the font but I think it's locked. I'll try unlocking it later to find the font name.

Guys, I think I found it. I noticed on my receipt for the vinyl I ordered was the font, and Museo Sans 500 was the font mentioned in the page script. ;D

I think the album cover uses a different font from the family though. probably this one?: http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/exljbris/museo-sans/300/

Yes please!
But is it 100, 300, or 500? If its 500, I already have it.

& no problem

Nevermind - it was a different font. Ugh. Sorry!

Oh its ok. I can give you 500 if you want it, but the cover probably uses 300. But 300 is $16.. i dont really want to pay for a font lol.
Title: Re: H&T and ROTR font?
Post by: Harmonium on August 03, 2011, 12:23:43 pm
It's not a Museo font. If you look at G and K for exemple (compare the letters from the digital lp), you see that it's very diffrent.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind it if you don't mind? Thanks! :)

I'm looking for the 300 but no joy so far. Argh.

Oh yeah, you're right. The 'E' is different too. Ahhh, so close.

then I wonder why they would use it on her top spin store.. cause it should be official, i mean seeing that it's selling the vinyl :P and everything else seems fine except those two.

It probally is a standard receipt for all Top Spin stores. They handle a lot of artist online stores.

Well I would assume that the receipt would use the same font as the one they use on their homepage which says verdana. And I always thought that when you use another site to put up your products you can edit the fonts/pictures/layout as if its your profile.

Almost every site uses verdana because it's a web-font, and everybody has it on their computer.  Top Spin probally has their own corporate identity with Museo as their font. I really doubt that they custom makes receipt for all their diffrent stores. They probally all look the same.
