It could be a separate font with its own name, but it’s essentially Frankfurter with extra weight added.

i think you’re absolutely right. i wish i could find a free version of this!

You could always just draw each letterform yourself from scratch.

Or you could go even fatter and take the brand-new Corpulent by Tomáš Brousil.

> i wish i could find a free version of this!

Yeah, I totally understand that. Me, I wish I could find a free version of the new iPhone. Or even better, a MacBook Pro! Wouldn’t that be neat? :^P

c’mon, let’s not get carried away now.

Geez, Yves. It’s just a font. It’s not like somebody spent time and effort creating the letterforms one bezier curve at a time, then hinting, spacing, and kerning them.

Oh, wait...

man, two snarky, passive aggressive pshaws in a row. apparently i’m off to a good start here. very welcoming.

how about instead of rolling your eyes at me, we talk it through? i’m always open for learning.

typography is new to me. i am a student. who is extremely excited by the possibilities of text. i’m sorry that i stepped on some toes here by considering free fonts. i will do better.

Hey Brent, you are welcome.
You just hit the sore point, I’m afraid. There are a lot of type designers here on Typophile, and they’re quite allergic to free fonts, you certainly can relate to that.

However, there are free fonts – unlike free iPhones and MacBooks. Hell, there are a lot of Typophile type designers who give away (some of) their fonts for free. And there’s even a FAQ on free fonts in the Typophile wiki.

So – additionally considering that an adipose Frankfurter is not something like a genuine textface that would be considered as labour-intensive, requiring extensive kerning an whatsoever, but quite on the contrary rather a face that typically would reside in the realm of free fonts – I cannot understand the harsh reaction.

well thank you very much, florian hardwig! i will definitely look into that free fonts FAQ!

and to the serious type designers i’ve offended—i am truly sorry.

Aw, come on, I was having a little joke at your expense. Does the :^P smiley ring any bell? No need to be sorry, I just wanted to put what you said into perspective. What is it with those oversensitive Americans? Talking about stepping on someone’s toes… :^D

BTW I’m not at all allergic to free fonts, just to rip-offs of commercial fonts or stolen ones. If you are a student, maybe the Introductions to Type Design on Unzipped might be a good start at understanding why good quality typefaces rarely are free. ;^)
