Title: Millionaire Question Font
Post by: pianogeek on April 26, 2004, 10:39:07 AM

I know "Copperplate Gothic Bold" is the font used on the logo, money tree and the cash winnings title bar...

(i.e. --< * $32,000 * >-- ).

But what's the name of the font that's used on all the questions and answer selections on Millionaire/Super Millionaire?

Plus, do any of you know a link to download that particular questions font?  (I'm developing a Software Engineering Power Point presentation this coming Wednesday and I've been making a homemade Millionaire theme on the backgrounds and letterings on my slides.  If nothing can be found, then I'll use "Verdana".  No big deal :))

Although not exact, Trebuchet MS if your on a Windows machine is pretty close.

The identity of this font in question is ITC Conduit, one of those fonts you can't find as freeware.  In other words, you can have it if you have $25 more than you know what to do with.  Personally, I'm using Arial Narrow on the Millionaire project I'm currently working on.

The font "Gadget" looks a lot like the font used for the questions.
