ok thanks…is this type of font illegal to own?
Just curious; I was actually trying to find a font that would have clinical look.
thank you.

I personally don’t know if there are any fonts, per se, that are “illegal to own”. There
has been a reluctance here, though, to provide info to anyone who might possibly be
trying to duplicate currency or credit/debit cards

thanks for the suggestion Mike. If the monitor of this section feels that my post is somewhat ‘uncomfortable’ please go ahead and delete the thread.
thanks again.

Nah, that’s all right. I don’t mind “uncomfortable”. We’re all adults here. :-)

BTW the correct word is not “monitor” but “moderator”, tho frankly there’s
nothing “moderate” about me.
