xit Posted September 23, 2002 Posted September 23, 2002 Im making some wallpapers currently, and im just wondering if anyone knows what fonts Microsoft uses on their product logos? (such as .NET 2003 server, XP, 2000 etc)I have tried verdana, but its not quite the same.
FthrJACK Posted September 23, 2002 Posted September 23, 2002 not sure.. i think its just arial though.
Reverend Posted September 23, 2002 Posted September 23, 2002 Not 100% sure,but i think it's either "Tahoma" or "Trebuchet MS".
xit Posted September 23, 2002 Author Posted September 23, 2002 Thanks for the replies, i'll give them all a shot.
MSNwar Posted September 23, 2002 Posted September 23, 2002 All of the above I think. After playing around with logos, covers, etc. Arial seems the most common. Think I'll ask around - something to do.
FthrJACK Posted September 24, 2002 Posted September 24, 2002 after needing it myself (see sig)i found its ARIAL BLACKverdana works well but if you look at the dip in the letter M, verdana dosent go down as low as Arial Black does.Arial Black: MicrosoftVerdana: MicrosoftObviously it looks a little off when done by the browser, but in an image editor it looks perfect.
MSNwar Posted September 24, 2002 Posted September 24, 2002 I have also noticed that image editors such as Adobe and Paint appear one way on the PC and little differnt in the IE browser. The printed result is good enough for my printed stuff.In short "What he said"
FthrJACK Posted September 24, 2002 Posted September 24, 2002 thats why proffesionally designed sites have a lot of text that is actually an image on the page.
