so have I but none are marked as official.

But anyway another question. Is the tos starfleet tech manual and the 75 blueprints ctill considered cannon, At least concerning the ship markings.? I have the font on my computer that they used in the tech manual, which is microgramma bold ext, and if its still considered official Ill use that for my tos markings.

neutral zone has a fonts page which has the anon tmp font, as well as tons of alien lettering. There is a sticky thread at BCU modding discussion which has a bunch of link references too.

YOU CAN MAKE FONTS IN ADOBE??? I had no idea you could do that.

Well not exactly - Adobe makes font sets which are in "Adobe Type 1" file format (*.pfb,*.pfm) as opposed to Microsoft's TrueType (*.ttf) format.

Hm. Well, I'm trying to re-build my fine sci-fi font collection, and I got a bunch that I didn't before.

So where are more Trekkie font pages again? I remember at one time having a bunch of fonts, including fonts from Ferengi or Iconian or Vulcan, I mean, it had a lot of alien fonts I want to grab my hands on again!

On my web page is a zip containing various trek fonts (cklick my sig, then click the link that says "best viewed with these fonts") The TOS hull font is the Amarillo USAF font (similar to todays military Modified vertical block aircraft markings) I posted a jpg containing the TOS lettering in your enterprise WIP thread. im sure someone here with more knowledge than me can make a true type font out of that
