(x) Snow is fun - 02/ILoveSnow - DIN 1451 Mittelschrift, FF DIN {Ryan}

I was wondering if you typopheliacs could help me identify these two. They might be from the same family but I'm not sure.

Thanks.

The Two Fonts

DIN?

Looks like the bottom is DIN 1451... and the top is... DIN 1451 EF?

ahh... Thank you.

Sorry if they're obvious. I'm not much of a type fanatic.

Wait... I'm not sure about the top one. The S doesnt fit DIN 1451 EF...

I wasn't so sure myself... the top might also be a different weight of regular DIN 1451.

I'm not sure how that would work... It's a perfectly smooth S in DIN 1451, but one with curves in the top text. Can weighting do that?

There's where I saw it, maybe it's just showing up weird on my PC since it's flash text.

I think it might be because it's in Flash text... I wish people wouldn't lock their flash items so we could zoom in like we used to and find these things out for sure... how does FF DIN Regular look? If it's not quite what you're looking for, try browsing through the FF Din family.

"Snow is Fun" is definitely DIN Regular, while "02/ILOVESNOW" is DIN 1451 Mittelschrift.
