Does anyone know the font used in the "word cloud"?
Its a form of Helvetica. You will need a heavier weight. The "bold" function on your application may suffice. If you don't have Helvetica, you can use its evil twin, Arial.
Welcome to the forums, by the way. [:)]
There are some good websites that help you identify random fonts, based on characteristics of the letters:
http://www.identifont.com/
http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
http://www.whatfontis.com/
Those are good sites. I used them when I needed assistance in my Typography classes.
As for the word cloud, some give aways are the capitals R, G, and lowercase t. Arial, by the way, was a Microsoft knock off of Helvetica.
I tried Helvetica, but no luck.. check out the image below:
No biggie... just figured if someone knew...
I tried some of the font sites, but they came back with Gill Sans. Close, but not exact.
John - Sometimes, the only way a question can be answered is with a screen shot. Good job! If you look in your Logos 4 program settings, I believe you will find the name of the typeface. Under the notes section, I have Helvetica listed, which is the typeface used for all of my word clouds. My guess is that you will find your answer there.
At first glance, the typeface is similar to Optima, but not quite. If you don't find what you are looking for, please let us know and I will try to investigate further. If you do find out the typeface, please let us know as well. [:)]
I bet its Candara, another microsoft rip off!
It is Candara. Thank you very much.
Sure thing. Glad to help. [:)]
The Logos word cloud is similar to the www.wordle.net
There are a variety of fonts available as well as a variety of formats, colors, etc.
You can copy your Bible passage into wordle and generate a wide range of formats at random or by selecting different options.
Thanks for the link, Edwin! [:)]
