I finished a library book and it uses a large print font called Centerpoint.
I did a search but found nothing. I would like to install that font. Thanks. |

Fonts are a kind of graphic design. Some, like Old English or Arial, have been mainstream for many years. Others are created by artists and may have little or no circulation. The only thing I could think of to do would be to borrow the book again and look in the front pages. Sometimes you'll find an attribution or copyright notice for the font. |

There is a web site that accepts a graphics file with a font sample on it, and returns a list of candidates. When I tested that, it returned a list of fifty possibilities, and the "correct answer" was *the very last line in the results*, not the first line :-) I must award that site a small prize, for being so clever about it. All it takes, is one miss-spelling of that name Centerpoint Centerpointe Center Point to give entirely different results. The font name and the font house would be useful info. If we had a link to a Google scan sample of the book, then it might be possible to sample the font and upload to the recognition site. Paul |

| Center Point Large Print | Thorndike, Maine | It's a company, not a font. I can't guess why you assumed it was a font: https://www.placelookup.net/center-p...-print_2518174 As Paul said, it would be easier for everyone if you provided info with the question. |
