eriqjaffe Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 sj, thanks for posting that. I went into the finished fonts (as opposed to the Fontographer source files) and saw the same thing - it must have happened on the TT generation, as the Fontographer files don't have that problem.Either way, I was able to fix it!JP and Nick don't have to worry, the problem wasn't in their source files, Fontographer somehow added a stray anchor point when it generated the TTF files. Go figure.The new, corrected NFL Fonts are available on my site now - the "Football" link has been updated with the corrected .ZIP.Thanks to all for your kind words and sharp eyes.

sj32 Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Question, I assume all the teams are coverd via the Varsity stuff, but does anyone know what the New York Jets use as their letters and numbers?Thanks, DW. DW - in the .zip files is a readme file which tells which of the Block fonts belongs with which team. The Jets is "NFL Varsity Block A". I think wysinwyg mentioned that the Vikings are not on the list. I would imagine they are the same NFL Block A but the makers would probably know definitively.Eriq, Nick, JP, et al.Thanks for the fix on the "8's". I know these fonts are a pain in the @ss to make but they really are a tremendous resourse to the community. Great job!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deked73 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Thank you, eriqjaffe. Is there any place that has the script fonts that MLB teams use on their jerseys?I know I am getting out of the topic here and I don't mean to bug anyone I just was wondering.Deked73 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eriqjaffe Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Is there any place that has the script fonts that MLB teams use on their jerseys?Not exactly - there are some that can give you a similar effect, but you're gonna have to pay for the good ones.Commercial:Jukebox Fonts puts out "Fenway Park", which is probalby the closest you'll find to the script fonts used in MLB.Letterhead Fonts has a few (LHF Ballpark, LHF Ephemera, LHF Pilsener). The nice thing about those is they also feature "swash" fonts, which you can combine with Fenway Park for some really good-looking stuff.Free:Mickey Rossi's "Ballpark Weiner" is easily the best freeware font of its kind.

spyboy1 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Someone out there needs to make Fenway Park with swooshes. There's a fortune waiting to be had, execpt of course that no one ever wants to pay for a font! Fenway Park is the one I use the most. If I need a swoosh for it, I try to borrow one from a Kansas City Royals or similar vector logo.By the way, the Letterhead Font "Billhead" rocks as well. No swooshes, but man what an excellent font for vintage sports desins. It's actually three fonts and you can mix the fonts, using uppercase from one version with lowercase from another.

spyboy1 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 The little "connector" from the letter to the swooshe is pretty skinny with Ephemera, and I actually don't own Ballpark. Is that one much thicker?
