There are a lot of fancy fonts in books. I tried upon occasion to duplicate or come close when I've proofed, but then I found they don't translate to the formats you all can read Attached are New York in some of he fancy fonts my Word has--and of course printers have a wider variety of choices. Also, f it's a narrow font it would be easier for the OCR to make a mistake. Unfortunately when I pasted the examples onto my email they didn't retain their shape, so I've attached them for anyone ierested. Anyone not ierested can delee this emaiul and/or attachment. Under the first New York I did New Fork in the same font. The rest are just New York in different fonts. Some are really pretty, imo: New Fork New York (brush script New York Edwardian New York Baskerville old face New York Harrington Cindy o of the week > To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Saturday, October 10, 2009, 9:12 AM > Don't you wonder how that particular > scano came up?
