Does anyone know what font is used for the Lord of the Rings text in the title logo? Is it an easily-available (standard) one, or was it created especially for the films?
Any help is appreciated. Regards, Michael |

Yes well, who isn't a fan of Tolkien these days?
![]() ![]() Anyway, RitingFool's question still hasn't been answered since he didn't ask about any of the alphabets/futharks Tolkien thought up (cool though they are) but about the font used for the logo of the movie. I checked the official movie site (www.lordoftherings.net) and I couldn't find the font anywhere in their downloads section but on Google I found this site. Hope that helps.

You are, of course right Mel. Who isn't a Tolkien fan these days. But I've been a huge Tolkien fan since I was 12. I'm 40 now. To bastardize an old country song... I was Tolkien, when Tolkien wasn't cool.

You don't need to convince me, Sir T
![]() ![]() Of course, I *would* have been a fan for as long as you if I were 40. ![]() Stormy, err... did you read my post and the opening post? Checked the link I posted? It's about the font used in the LOGO. Not the alphabets Tolkien thought up, which are available in thousands of places. It's about the logo of the movies, that font. Not that the elvish and dwarvish futharks aren't cool, but that wasn't the question, like I said before. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [ 11-06-2003, 01:51 PM: Message edited by: Melusine ]
