I need to find a typeface that is similar to my hand-drawn type face for a book project as I don't fancy hand-lettering a load of type in six different languages any suggestions for type that would work with this sample?/Users/michaeluser/Docume... from sept 08/zest walks/aws/Zest-southdowns-aw.jpg

Oops, didn't look at the site, do you mean one like Michael A Hill or France?

I believe you should draw your own A-Z set in Illustrator.

It's nothing fancy, and might be more work than you're looking to do, but you could draw your own letters and use http://www.fontcapture.com/

I think I am going to have a go at drawing my own that seems like an interesting option. Thanks

love your style. an easy way to convert paint to type is a good DSLR camera, or a scanner, clean up the images in photoshop, and make them b&w then bring the images in to illy and live trace the shapes. works well for me.
