Excluding the fonts used in the tiles and credits, there was a typeface used for alot of the displayed graphical information on TOS. A good example being the screen display about Talos IV in the episode Menagerie. Does anyone know the name of this font/typeface?

I recently asked the same.

Summary:
Schematics etc. mostly used Alternate Gothic, which can be found here:

The few maps we saw used Futura Heavy and Futura Extra Black.

Oh.. and what screen display are you talking about? Does anyone have a picture of it?
