Since the Canon font (typeface) isn't publicly available, I'm wondering if there are any fonts that resembles Canons. I'm wanting to put a saying across on the upper part of my windshield on my truck and would like a font that looks like Canons.

Anyone know of any? Is so can you provide me with links or their names so that I can find them?

Thanks
Bill

Yea I found that old thread that told what the font was, but you still can't find it anywhere. Or at least not for free and I'm not paying for the font.

Check out 1001fonts.com

They usually have some cool stuff, just depends how many font makers like Canon!

You can insert your text to see what it will look like in the various fonts. Pretty cool!

I have used dafont.com as a source before; they also let you insert your own text to see what it looks like, makes finding what you want much easier.
