thought I should add that since I've been in Germany a lot of people have asked if I'm American and when I say "No, I'm Canadian" they're like "Oh..." as if they don't know what to say.
Most of the people assume it's always snowy there and that we all eat maple syrup and have bears and moose everywhere.

Depends on what style/period you're looking for. What is the "look" are you trying to achieve?

I'm trying to create some packaging which must look French. Anyone know the name of a typeface which will give me that classic french look?
Thanks
