What is the name of the font used in our "Pur-O-Zone" logo (found at
http://www.purozone.com)

Request for Question Clarification by hammer-ga on 04 Nov 2002 11:45 PST
Are you aware that the font will not include the horizontal lines? I
can likely find the name of the font in which Pur-O-Zone is written,
but the lines are drawn over the text after-the-fact. Will the name of
the font itself (sans lines) be an acceptable answer?

Clarification of Question by marklz-ga on 04 Nov 2002 12:04 PST
Absolutely - the name of the font, disregarding the lines, was exactly
what I was looking for. My plan is to either add a smaller quantity of
lines myself (an easy task), or perhaps just leave the lines out
altogether.

Thanks,
Mark

This font is very peculiar. Per our accidental telephone discussion,
since you are willing to use something similar, I have some
suggestions. This is definitely a rounded sans serif font. Sans Serif
means that the letters have plain ends, like Arial, rather than flags
on the ends, like Times New Roman.

You might try Arial Rounded or Helvetica Rounded in Italic. Both of
these provide a nice clean font with different weights available.

Here are some other rounded fonts:

Here is a font site which organizes fonts by style. Check out the Art
Deco section for other fonts with a similar N to yours:

Here is a great general site for looking at and identifying different
fonts:

Good luck with your new logo!

In terms of closeness, a couple of fonts called Nordic and Vogue come
close, when used as italics.
