Love the ship Lobo, a sensible and plausible design, bridging the TOS/TMP eras..

The font I use is called AmarilloUSAF. I've put it on my server so you can download it. I shan't keep it there for too long tho..... [Smile]

Topher: the USN font is far from the Microgramma font family though, so i dont know why you are considering them related. The only relation between them is that they were both used on different eras of Star Trek. Calling one the other is inaccurate.

BTW, if you really want to get picky about fonts relating to TOS, take note of the fact that there were subtle differences between the smaller 1701 in 'The Cage' and 'WNMHGB' and the large Enterprise seen in most of TOS. The '7' and the '1' were a little different in the decals between the two. Also, the Constellation had a thinner font for its name, in order to fit the space alotted

I got my copy of the Amarillo font from its creator at this page: http://www.tlai.com/med_des/amusaf.html

I even sent in my shareware fee and later bought a copy of Amarillo Pro, which has all the alternate historical characters allowing you to make absolutely correct registries.

Meanwhile, I've taken the shareware into Softy and am busy creating the correct alternate characters to make it ST:TOS (1,7,E,F,Z) so i probably wont be buying it.
