Identify Fonts Please

Post by jakeng »

Hello,

Does any font guru here know any of these fonts? Your help would be very, very appreciated.

Font 1:

Font 2:

Font 3:

I need these fonts to perfectly clone an official document's formatting, so therefore it's really really important that they match 100 %. Let me know if these images are not sufficient.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Jakob

I've figured out that the third one is Times New Roman Bold. Can anyone help me out with the other two? :)

These have been hard to make 100% certain. The font samples are too small to discern nuances of design and the styes are very traditional which don't offer obviously distinct differences.

Here are some possibilities. Not sure of any of them!

Font 1: not very distinctive.
SoftMaker Software/Book-Light
URW/B/Bookman Itc T-Light

Font 2: sample too small.
Plantin (several vendors): (Too heavy. k foot is wrong. Z doesn't look right.)

If you have or can track down a PDF, it will at least identify the fonts when you look at the PDF properties. With acrobat, you can also check specific text blocks as to which fonts are used in specific places.
