not sure on the font but try searching the forums for font because Donna has posted a link to a site that will match fonts or something like that.

Thats probably, cos big company's use mostly there own designed fonts, they are very similar to the ones that exist, but usually they fit there reputation a little better.
Mayber thats the case here:
it seems a sans serif, oldtype bold type, but theres been a litte tweeking, to make it "a little serif" kinda type.

Looking for exact the same type is almost impossible, i never understood all those threads asking "whatthefont".

You should rather ask questions about "what font suits my project the most" kinda questions :)

But off course that's only MHO !

Exactly as i presume scythar; it's an 'in house' font if you wish that's obviously a modified version of a bog standard one to suite the style and approach the the package design..

In actual fact i think i can confirm that this is actually a modified version of the (Tahoma) 'Bold' font; have a look and you will most likely agree... i've used that instead.
