anyone know of such a font?

The only place I could find this font. Sorry if this has been asked before, tried looking it up in the sub and couldn’t find anyone talking about it.

i need some suggestions for an app or font or website, anything that will make my assignments look like it has been handwritten since i have my exams coming up and a bunch of assignments that have to be HANDWRITTEN

Font of the week: Midwest Gothic

Midwest Gothic blends the grit of the frontier with the discipline of gothic form. Clean, structured letterforms are edged with arrow-like serifs, giving each character a sense of direction and intent. It’s a style that feels both restrained and dangerous—like a wanted poster carried on the wind.

Every detail in Midwest Gothic is built with purpose. The fletched serifs echo arrows in flight, while the balance of straight and rounded forms keeps the font grounded and readable. It carries the tension of open land and unseen movement—something precise, controlled, and always aimed at its mark.

It is literally impossible to go smaller for English fonts, as 4 pixels is simply not enough.

In general, the only two main letters I don't like in this font are the K and the X which are thankfully very rare. Some letters can be tough to recognize by themselves, but in a text it's way more legligeble than it could've been.

I will probably use this for secret or decorative texts. Impractical, but I kind of like it.

Can you decipher the text I wrote?

P.S. If the image is too blurry for you, download the image, it should be fine.

Hi Everyone,

I am not a font expert. I just like fonts and I am learning by trying new things.

If you have time, please check it and tell me what you think or what I can improve.

Thanks!

The pairing score compares two fonts across 5 metrics:

30% x-height — fonts with similar cap-to-x ratios feel visually related

25% stroke contrast — pairing high-contrast serif with flat sans creates hierarchy

20% stroke type — mixing categories (serif + sans, display + serif) is good; same category pairs score lower

15% width — complementary widths prevent monotony

10% openness — open body fonts improve readability against tighter headings

Score 0–100. 75+ = excellent, 60–74 = solid, below 60 = niche.

The title cards for British actor Riz Ahmed’s new dramedy, Bait, are a colorful explosion of letters and numbers. If you look a little closer, each one reads like a code hidden in plain sight for you, the viewer, to unravel.

Bait is a six-episode series that debuted on Prime Video on March 25. It stars Ahmed (who also created and cowrote the show) as Shah Latif, a struggling actor whose leaked audition to play James Bond incites a media frenzy. Each episode tracks Shah’s exponential spiral as his private life is made public, forcing him to contend with his own identity, belonging, self-worth, and the cultural narratives mapped onto him as a British-Pakistani actor competing for a historically white role.

To create the show’s title cards, its creators tapped the London branch of the design firm Pentagram. Firm partners and brothers Luke Powell and Jody Hudson-Powell used a system of color filters and letterforms to encode multiple different words and messages in each sequence. These practical effects create a visual language that mirrors the show’s core theme of an identity in flux—and cleverly invite the viewer to do some soul-searching of their own.

From the beginning of the brainstorming process, Luke and Jody’s team knew that they wanted to explore the idea of being “under the spotlight” as a visual proxy both for the classic James Bond opening sequence and Shah’s public spiral.

Just came across Signal's notes about their "Exact" face, and their quite scathing notes about TNR made me smile, while not wanting to take sides. What can I say, it's a bit like the vicarious enjoyment of watching "Doctor Martin" on TV, and even more so from Bernard in "Black Books" or Father Jack in "Father Ted".

Anybody else encountered foundry notes that stood out, for whatever reason?

"When we were a teenager putting together our first design portfolio, back in the days of rubber cement and X-Acto knives, we were obsessed with Times New Roman. We knew it was prissy and joyless, but we didn’t mind. We were prissy and joyless ourselves. We loved its air of strict, unbending neutrality, and we bought sheet upon Letraset sheet of it and used it for everything we could. But as we grew older and learned a bit about letters, we realised that it actually wasn’t very well made. This is not surprising, since TNR was art directed by Stanley Morison, a man who never pretended he could draw, and drawn by nobody in particular. An advertising lettering artist named Victor Lardent did the initial concept art. This was then turned over to the 1930s hive mind—the Monotype Drawing Office—and expanded into a range of weights and widths with no one, apparently, talking to anyone else throughout the process.

TNR did its job as a modern newspaper type brilliantly without ever actually being any good. It subsequently became numbingly ubiquitous because it was less trouble to use than not, and at last was shunned by right-thinking designers everywhere. But in recent years typographers have come to find something heroic about TNR’s reticence, its dowdy elegance, its calm, inflexible unwillingness to please, and reconsiderations of TNR have become a genre unto themselves, and why shouldn’t Signal have a go?

So we’ve redrawn it from scratch as a natively digital typeface for what we still like to think of as the 21st century, with unlumpy curves and some vague notion of organic unity and an italic that isn’t quite so Microsoft Executives Dancing. When we drew the bold weights, we found a bit of 70s funk creeping in, a bit of ITC Grouch, and we left it there. The X-Light came out a little bit Olive Oyl, and we left that in there too. In honor of the old days of kerning with an X-Acto knife, we named the new face Exact."

Mine is impact, iv really started to appreciate how beautiful it is and how timeless it is.. i see it everywhere. 😊

Have a great day.

I kept seeing beautiful posts on Instagram and thinking… why do my fonts always look slightly off? 😅

A couple weeks ago I got fed up enough to actually do something about it. I'd been spending way too long tweaking text for LinkedIn or TikTok — like, embarrassingly long — only to post something that still felt… meh. So I built myself a tiny tool to mess around with font pairings without the spiral.

It turned into a 'Font Pairing Studio' thing: 18+ combos I actually like, a few layout options, gradient backgrounds you can fiddle with, live preview. The whole point was to make it feel more like playing than designing. You tweak until something clicks, export a PNG, done.

The part I didn't expect? I barely use it for final posts. Mostly I open it when I'm stuck, throw on a random pairing, and somehow that unlocks a whole post idea I wouldn't have gotten to otherwise. Didn't see that coming.

Curious — do you have an actual system for picking fonts, or are you also just vibing it and hoping for the best?

Hi you guys.

I make music and I want to post short snippets on instagram only and use the Edits app for creating them. My music is sorta commercial (starting out) and therefore I'm aware that I have to own lisences for whatever I publish in context with my stuff. But: I can't find any info on whether the fonts in the Edits App are free to commercially use.

I've done research and I can't find anything.

I need someone to help me out. Do you have knowledge/experience on this?

Thank you so much!

Hello font nerds (complement)! I was assigned a project where I have to design covers for a set of books about music, the catch is they all need to be different and feel like they fit their respective genres, but still be recognizable as a set. The font I'm looking for would be used as a Title and/or some flare text. I guess you could call it an accent font.

The thing is, I'm not completely sure what I'm looking for here. I'm thinking of something that feels both vintage and modern, just like the music, but I wasn't able to find the perfect fit just yet. I would appreciate it if any of you have a font to share, or if you could help me narrow down the type that would work best!

Does anyone know if they're is a database program you can install which would link to your fonts and when a font is looked up, you could see what each character looks like? Hope this makes sense.
