So we have just pitched for a website for a famous baker in the UK and WON it.
I know, I know - thanks...
This famous baker has books out in the market which I know for a fact my friend (who has his own design company) produced them.
Is it cunty to tell him we are doing the website and was wondering what fonts he used?
- WeLoveNoise0
why don't you just post the books on qbn and ask what the fonts are?

Because I can't find that particular page in the book online. I don't have the book you see...

If he's a friend why is this even an issue?
'Liked your fonts in the book, wanted to use online, that ok?'Why would anyone have a problem with this?!

FYI, you're hotlinking to an image on their site, so they'll probably get a spike in pages views and trace it back to this thread.
You may as well just ask your friend what the fonts are

I can see Mrs Eaves as the body copy though

Trade Gothic could work as well.

You're not really stealing work if you're making a brand connection between this guy's book and his website. If anything, Mr. Hollywood should insist you use the fonts from his book as that would reinforce the experience for his fans. Your friend who designed the book should also see this and be happy to share assets. Afterall, this guy is a client to both of you.

Look at the amazon link and you can see inside pages of the book which might make it a bit easier: http://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Bake…

1) Separate your friendship from business;
2) Business is business, and if your mate is even remotely reasonable, he'll understand this;
3) It wouldn't be cunty to ask for the font names at all. This is business;
4) It's not your fault your magte didn't win the pitch — if even pitched at all;
5) You're being paid by your client to produce good quality. Ergo, ask your mate which font he used.- 4) It's not your fault your mate didn't win the pitch — if he even pitched at all;*Continuity

I don't get this thread. If you won the pitch what are you worrying about?
