Kaczmarek font can't find where to buy it?

jlee2

We want to use this font, Kaczmarek, for the promo title graphics for a new show on CBS Television Network. I can't seem to find where to buy it. I've tried "What the font" and googled it pretty deeply, but not a trace of the word Kaczmarek is related to a font name as far as I can find. And of course I've been to most of the major on-line type foundries and they don't have it either. It has some very unique character shapes, like the angle on the ascenders.

Jon, not an ID, but:
This has a lot of interesting character traits, but it's also very sloppy in terms of curve quality (and this has probable implications like incomplete character set, poor onscreen rendering, etc.). Unless you actually like it for this "fauve" quality I might recommend finding a more polished font that has a comparable style; and if you go with it you might have to have it worked on to make it adequately usable for such a prestigious project.

I completely agree with Hrant on this one.
