I need to know the name of this font. It can be seen on this image - it's in the orange lettering "TIMKEN".

 <http://www.timken.com/homepage-seals3.jpg>

I have Adobe Font Folio but how in the world can I view all the fonts contained therein?

Thanks....

A bit of searching on their site takes one to:

http://www.timken.com/media/logo/

Where it says:
``The Timken logo is not a font. It cannot be reproduced by typing it
in any font. Please use the artwork provided.''

That said, it's a fairly typical condensed bracketed slab serif so you
could start w/ Cheltenham and mangle as necessary.

Mike, this appears to be Egyptian 505 by Bitstream or Egyptienne by Linotype.

Check mytype.com or linotype.com
