I had bookmarked this site after seeing it mentioned here a few times. Today I scanned & uploaded a few characters and the results were so far off looking even remotely like my scan I wonder what I did wrong. My results showed all kinds of lightweight frail looking script fonts. Anyone know why that would happen? Of course the R being the only character which looks unique, could be customized from a more basic font, but I was still disapointed at the font matching feature seeming to be so in-effective.
If anyone here recognizes this or knows of something similar I'd like to know. I actually straightened it out for the "What the font" site, but this is what I've got:

Looks like microgramma with a modified 'R' to me. Hope this helps

What the font use to be an EXCELLENT Site , it used to work everytime, lately I noticed the way it sees the fonts has chagned dramaticaly with the fonts showing a shadowed letter next to them ,, this never was that way before, but I agree it now has seemed to change for the worse, I dont like the changes myself

I agree with MM- - a modified Eurostyle bold- -you 'tryin to duplicate logo or use same style for other copy? Anybody here heard of "Dot Medium"? I searched 4 hrs. the other nite, couldn`t find it on net, hand cut instead & did the van next morning, lo & behold, found it in 5 mins. that nite- - - -oh well, now I have it for the repeats. . . .

Carl, I'm supposed to use same look on different copy (no R's) I already did my own makeshift basterdizing of eurostyle but the guy's like "Can't you just use that font?" like everything out there must be a font. Figured I'd make a minimum of effort to see if it was a font, since I'd thought I had seen such positive comments about "what the font" Guess it's time for round 2 of my very own distortion cruelty.

Many thanks to you Beth!! Got the font today, did the design work & quote for my client & landed a good job printing 6 mil heavy-duty clear die-cut decals for moto-cross fenders.
What a great resource full of great people we all have here! Thanks again to Steve & Barb.
