HELP...Identify fonts that have been outlined

Question

I am hoping someone might have suggestions or be able to assist. I was given this file that has been outlined and I am not able to identify the fonts because I don't have them on my computer. Because they are outlined, the font finders aren't able to recognize. I have tried importing to photoshop and using the find font but again I can't because the fonts aren't on my computer. Anyone have any suggestions or know what these fonts might be? Much appreciated!

Rick,

I believe the first of these is unlikely, and you have probably tried it, but maybe some of the following suggestions are untried.

You can try the Adobe Fonts site (upload an image, clicking to the right in the search box, to find the same or similar) and have immediate access to your find(s),

https://fonts.adobe.com/

or you can try font finder sites such as the following (undoubtedly there are countless others),

https://www.whatfontis.com/
http://www.identifont.com/
https://new.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
https://www.fontsquirrel.com/matcherator

http://www.bowfinprintworks.com/ScriptIDGuide.html (Script fonts)

and/or also ask in the Type & Typography forum,

I don't think this is a case of a typeface converted to outlines, based on how crude the vectors are. This is more likely a traced file from some existing printed art. I doubt even the person who created it has any idea of what the typefaces were.

In any case, the script typeface is like finding a needle in haystack... there are thousands of script typefaces out there that will be similar to this; Nailing it down will be impossible, even with a font identifier (plus, you need to have complete separated letters to do that).

That being said, the 13 is based on Arsis from MyFonts. 🙂
