Jeopardy! Fonts
« on: November 21, 2008, 02:20:47 PM »
(I can't get search to play nice.)

I'm in the process of making a Jeopardy control for my web design class, and I need some font help.

 - What is the font used for the dollar values on the board?
 - What is the font used for the Final Jeopardy! answer, used during the 30 seconds?

Help is appreciated.
When you're at the grocery game and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you could have at "Crazy Rachel's Checkout Counter!"

The on-screen font for the FJ! answer is Optima Semibold.  The dollar values font looks to be Univers 67 (although it seems to be a little thinner on screen).
