Hey Everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations as to where I should buy some new Fonts from. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

http://www.linotype.com/

Also, they have a very nice app called Font Explorer that will allow you to preview your own fonts with text that you choose, and even shop for new fonts. Sort of like iTunes for fonts.

My all-time favorite font is Strayhorn Bold from fonts.com. Slightly condensed, clean, and superb for titles and credits. I'm also fond of Benguiat Gothic for a casual look, and Neo Sans for clean, smaller text, such as in a table. Panache is sans serif, too, with a kind of humanistic feel.

fonts.com is not a site for budget fonts, but has great stuff.

myfonts.com is also nice; they have their "WhatTheFont" feature in which you can upload a small graphic or screenshot, and it will analyze it and give you the closest matches. Excellent tool!

Thanks Richard. I did wind up purchasing from fonts.com. I found their selection to be plentiful and their site the easiest to navigate. Thanks again.
