Hi,

Does anybody know where I can find a font similar to the one used for the car names on the TVR site? It needs to be serif and kind of script like...

TIA

R.

I think the font is one of the ITC Galliard family, either Galliard Bold Italic or Galliard Black Italic and I think they're condensed about 85-90%.

Palatino Bold Italic which is commonly available would be a reasonable compromise if you don't want to buy any fonts.

Palatino comes pre-installed on a Mac and I think is one of the fonts that's pre-installed on a PC (but under another name - not sure what it's called but I think it still begins with a P).

Sorry I know all this but I knew my typographic training would pay dividends one day.

I've used Times New Roman in bold italic - seems to simluate 'Griffith' quite well.
