I know there's like a bazillion fonts out there that claim to be TOS & that some of you have the "correct" ones. Could someone whip up a nice character map image for me so that I can correctly ink this ship I've built? I'm working with a registry in the 1300s, with a build date of around 2230 or so....so if that makes any difference in the types & designs of characters used...

What about the font used to spell 'Enterprise' and 'Horizon' on the shoulder patches? Anyone know what font is used for that? Is it a free download somewhere?

Nonono...I need an image that I can print out with all the characters on it so that I can draw it on the hull. I have no computer to DL things to, remember?

Go to the source: http://www.tlai.com/med_des/ausafpro.html (scroll down)
The "pro" version of the font has all the correct characters for both the production and pilot versions.
