Thanks Thomas & Ramon.

After posting here I did a couple of hours of searching on MyFonts and stumbled on Beaumarchais from Scriptorium, and on Neil's advice also posted at Typophile, where it also was identified as Columbus, Beaumarchais or Deneane.

Unable to locate a Columbus that matched I looked at both of the other two, and decided for the moment that neither was exact without manipulation, and the Deneane was only $2, so to play around I opted for the cheap route. Do either of you know if Deneane is really legit, or just a knockoff of the Scriptorium font? The copyright says Font Bank. If it's a knockoff I'll dump it and spend the big bucks if the client signs on.

BTW, Thomas, you didn't say for whom you digitized Columbus. Do you know if it is available?

Peter
