Does such a font exist?

Woe is me. I have search high and low on the net, and have found no such font. I can't believe someone would make a Digimon Font, but not a Chobits font. If anyone knows of such a font, please let me know. OH, and here's an example of the font I mean.

That example looks drawn to me. I'd be surprised if it was made into a font.

Do you need that exact font or something similar? I have found dozens of fonts that are hobbitish -- mostly form Tolkien sights...

Here is a place to start:

Search for "hobbit" | dafont.com

I'm sure you'll find something similar there.

Mike.

I agree with searching on DaFont. I did try What The Font but it didn't pick up the characters on the image very well.

For one, it's not a hobbit font, it's a Chobits font from the anime Chobits. Two, I already checked that site and found nothing.

Wouldn't it be quicker to find something close and alter it?

therebel29,

Maybe I shouldn't post this, but that seemed a bit off-colored of a response. NotJust and Jacorre were obviously we trying to help.

"Thanks, but the font is actually from the anime Chobits not Hobbits" might have been more appropriate. If you want help from people, you should show some gratitude, even if there is a misunderstanding.

I hope you have luck finding what you are looking for.

(again, sorry for posting this, but my "fatherly" instincts just took over)

I wish you and your family all the best.

You are right, and I apologize to all of you. I guess I just let the stress of it and the season get to me. Once again, sorry.
I haven't even really seen anything similiar to it. Change it??? How do you change it? You can actually do that?

Okay, I checked the site. Even went through all the possible ways to identify it, but no luck. I'm starting to think there might just be no font like it. I just find it hard to believe someone would make one for Digimon, but not this one. And I wouldn't even know where to begin making one, especially since I only have 5 letters use as referance. I'd have to create the rest.

It's a hand drawn custom serif font, based around Times New Roman.

It's very easy to copy a font like that. If you use typography software you will get a much better outcome than that terrible hand drawn font in your image.

The programs we use are Fontographer and Fontlab Studio. They will allow you to modify true type, manipulate existing fonts and incorporate hand drawn sketches.

Really? How much do such programs run? I am on a very fixed budget, so I have to get what I can for free or cheap.
