Let's play "What The Font?"

Posted 18 August 2012 - 05:32 AM

Now try This one..............???????

[ATTACH=CONFIG]9542[/ATTACH]

Got it! ... I knew it was kind of Serif or "semi- serif!" .. And I knew it was quite familiar
It is Nyala by Microsoft Corp.

I like semi-serif by the way, kind of a daring style ..

PS: (I would love to see your research process steps .. )
PS2: Remember not to use any "image" search engine or service like "What the font?" by MyFonts.com ok?

That Cap A looks like Century Gothic ... but (as always) ... let me do some research.

jjy

update 1: ok, nope. Not Century Gothic at all ... sans serif for sure, geometrical, a little bit chubby, low A bar ... let's see
update 2: this looks so close to Avenir ... hm
update 3: hm (doubing) Cap A looks SO similar to Mostra Nuova and small cap a is too similar to Avenir ...
I hope you didn`t set me up .. dude.
update 4: I'm almost sure of the last update but I continue to search for a "abosolutely right" one if exists :-)
Again, search terms are: Sans serif, Geomtric, Gothic, Din ... and so on.

Are You using a single font or using different fonts for Both Caps and Small Letter

I made myself the same question with "Neutra Text" ..
No pal, This is just the same font for both letters of course ...

update 1
HINT: DIN as well as this one is a very nice font for using on displays. Even on High Resolutions.

Well,
I think everybody gave up

The answer was: Roboto, by android. A nice free (OpenSource) alternative to DIN.
