baddad Report post Posted February 26, 2009 Hi - I don't know if this contains 'elementary sci-fi' but there's a free doewnload of nearly 5000 fonts here: Here I think it's an updated/renamed version of '4000+ font collection', which I downloaded a couple of years ago and is brilliant. Certainly the reviews look similar. you should be fine with this dowload source, but DO scan for viruses/adware before opening the downloaded file. It would also be a good idea to download a font viewer that will allow you to browse multiple fonts easily (unlike windows which is one at a time!). you should find 'Font thing' somewhere on the same site, butcheck that it works with your O/S if you run vista. It runs fine on XP/98SE... L&P BD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baddad Report post Posted February 26, 2009 not showing elementary you may not find exactly what you are looking for by name, but if you downloaded font thing and have a look you should find something similar/the same with a different name. if there's absolutely nothing there that's close (unlikely) you may find it as a free download on a commercial font site but BE CAREFUL downloading and run antivirus/spyware. Outside of that, you'll have to look for it on a commercial site or fonts disc and pay for it L&P BD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
