    I am trying to match a font for a project at work. It is from a uniform. It doesn't have to be a perfect match but it needs to be close. Any help would be appreciated.

    Go to WHATTHEFONT.com and submit the drawing. Perhaps use a better picture from the uniform owner website and submit that one. :eek:

    What school or mascot is it?

    No.

    THIS IS IMPACT IN 'ITALICS' - HAWKS - [sic] and it doesn't look the same.

    Considering its from a uniform, Chris Creamer Sports Logo message board is your best bet to get an exact match.

    It is a high school team, so it won't be as easy as looking them up. I have access to the team but they do not know what font was put on the jerseys. I am going to post it on the What the font forums and see what they say.

    Someone (probably local company) printed those jerseys. Have you tried asking the team where they went to get their uniforms made?
    If not then you are out of luck, but its a possibility.

    You can't tell us what school it is? Maybe we can see bigger versions of the lettering. :eek:

    *Is there an echo here?* -_-

    Not really sure what font that is, but I really enjoy using Comic Sans for everything. Emails, professional letters, resumes, birthday party invitations, thank you letters, etc.. Comic Sans has taken over my life.

    ^ You're pissing me off, man. :mad: This is a serious discussion.



    Get out of here with that stuff.

    Everyone knows COURIER NEW is the way to go. :eek:



    Why, I am sure that you think you're reading messages from Morpheus in the Matrix. Cool, no?

    The A with that slant in the top left, the K with that single serif pointing backwards, and the 1 are all very unique. You should be able to confirm it with those three.

    However, artists are also known to create their own lettering and not use an existing font at all. I've never seen an A like that, and never noticed a K like that. The S is, actually, also pretty unique in how square it is.
