XTClaus Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 I try to make a Copy of the pictured River Raid Cover...Does anyone have an Activision-Font with the Activision Logo (the Logo is the most important for me)? By the way: I have successfully removed the "rust" from the Cover glue that comes thru the paper. Ask your local stamp-collecting-store (don't know a better word in English)...There is Toluol-Based fluid that works really great... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 I don't have a copy of the font, but if someone does come up with it I'll add it to the fonts page I put online a few days ago (and I'll hopefully be adding more Atari fonts today). ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTClaus Posted June 20, 2002 Author Share Posted June 20, 2002 Does anyone successful made a copy of an Activision-Lable and is it "alowed" for a collector to make a "new" Label or is it better try to restore it with much less success?

Han Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 The Activision logo is using a modified font. Don't know which one, or if there are any similar fonts. It might also be an original design. Anyway if you want I could trace it for you and send you an Illustrator file of the logo. It's not very complex, so it should a quick job.

XTClaus Posted June 21, 2002 Author Share Posted June 21, 2002 That would be very nice. When you have some free time and dont hunt for Swedisch Gold... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Han Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 Here's the Activision logo, in GIF format. Hope this one will work for you. If you want it in antoher format just gimme a shout... Nah, I don't hunt for Swedish gold, I hunt for Atari carts! But in Sweden that is about as hard to find as gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTClaus Posted June 23, 2002 Author Share Posted June 23, 2002 Yes, it's a very impressive and clear one... And now I'm also looking for the Activision font - set or a set, that's near the Activision set. Any hint is very welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any hint is very welcome. Can't help you there... But here's a useful link http://www.myfonts.com/whatthefont/ It's a website that identifies fonts. But I doubt that it will work with the Activision logo, but give it a shot. It's a quite useful link anyway ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTClaus Posted June 24, 2002 Author Share Posted June 24, 2002 This is a very useful link! I've found a font that will work. But I can't get it for free anywhere. They all want hard earned money!!! Maybe someone can help and post the font with the name: futura bold This font will work fine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnspike Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 I am not sure what the EF stands for, but Adobe Fonts has those fonts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
