What's your budget?
Are you looking for quality... or free? If you're going to be routing, free fonts often have crossed loops and open segments.:eek: A search of "Joe Crumley" in threads will yield many quality font links.

Mike,

Don't feel bad about loosing fonts. It happened me last week. One of my favorite fonts, Caslon Graphic is missing. I had a copy on my backup but it still makes me mad.

One of my favorite sites is "Fonts.com. I'm fond of their type tester. It's one of my favorite places to visit when I'm developing a logo for a new client. Their prices area very reasonable.

The ultimate is "Letterheadfonts.com. They keep track of the fonts you've ordered and if you have trouble, they let you down load at no cost. Good people.

if you send me your email I will burn a copy of my font data base for you and send you a dvd with over 2500 fonts on it

I hope none of these are Letterhead Fonts.

Hi Mike,

I'm thinking of upgrading from X5 - A standard upgrade would probably not delete fonts, but after your crash; that sucks! Which ones are missing - if it's not a long list... They still advertise 1000+ fonts, but don't really list them.

Thanks!

no we use them with illustrator and photoshop and I use them in aspire so they should work for you but if you don't want a copy that is ok as well

Like Joe said, the best source is www.letterheadfonts.com - there is a gallery on their website of designs made by sign folks using their fonts. Tremendous source of inspiration.
