hello! is this an actual font, or is it something someone has manipulated? it would be very useful for me if it was an actual font, at least if someone could clearly identify was “base” font was used.

i’ve a number of fonts i have, some are close, but not exact.

thanks for your help!

I think the base font might be News Gothic or Trade Gothic. By the looks of the way it blurs around adjacent characters, I think it was manipulated after setting, not a font that already looks that way.

I think Mark is correct as usual. You might like FF Blur which is based on more of a wide grotesque, like Helvetica..
