I think it is Nobel.

The ampersand and numbers don’t match Nobel.

Looks so familiar... come on brain, kick in.

Something called Futura No. 2 is not too far off, at least in the text. The j has a hook, unlike regular Futura. The numerals and ampersand are not from this font (which is only close, but not identical).

Futura No. 2 is not too far off no.
If anyone have more suggestions, please keep them coming.

I did a Google search for “Friendly Noise FZN01” and found their website.

http://www.friendlynoise.se/fzn/1/#page0

It must be my luck day because they are using TypeKit or something to embed the font. After a quick search of the source I found a javascript file loading the font.

Sure enough Mullino is what you’re after from YWFT. (Right under our noses all along)

@1UP: To help others in the future find this node by using search can you please change the subject to something more descriptive :: eg. “Friendly Noise FZN01 ID Request”?

THX!

Jeff, you’re getting to be a wiz at probing the site info. How exactly are you doing that?

- Mike Yanega

In this case I noticed that the type on the website wasn’t saved as an image. From there I just did a ’View Source’ in the browser and found the .js file reference in the that loads the font. Append that link to the site URL and you can view the javascript.

If you have additional questions just drop me an email. I’d be happy to provide a step-by-step so you can see it in action with this example.

Thanks a lot Jeff.
I’ve now changed the subject.
