Font?

[pfangel]

Is any one aware of which font is used in DMFA? Thanks for any help.

Pasteris... well, I think it is, I can't be bothered checking

Maybe she'll be nice and give an updated list of fonts she uses for effects and headings.

I don't know if you PM to Amber or Darkmoon they will help you and give you an answer. I hope this will helps.

I just thought of how to test it requiring no effort

That was written in Pasteris but you'd need the font installed to see it, otherwise it'll be in your browser's default font

   I personally use the font Pasteris primarily for DMFA. Though occasionally
   I will whip out a font called Markerman or Yikes. A font that is all
   capital letters is idea for doing a comic.

   I'd recommend going to the site 1001freefonts.com and look through their
   selections for fonts that you think would be best suited for your strip.
   One that is easily readable is always a must.

I should get around to putting that up somewhere, and then linking it into the wikuwiki...

Amazingly it actually worked on Konqueror.  The shrink-the-font-to-nothing trick doesn't though. 

**EDIT**
From my experiments (the Kula Shaker strip etc) it looks like she's using it in bold or something, which Gimp refuses to do, at least on Linux.

What shrink the to font to nothing trick?
is just the smallest default font size (1-7) and is not the same as which is the smallest font size (the forum allows for 1pt to 99pt)

Which annoys me to no end.

Its Gothic something...I'll look real quick n see....
[edit]
yes, it is called showcard gothic!
[edit again]
She uses showcard gothic for the titles and such.
