Title: Japanese font for Namco Galaxian Cocktail
Post by: Luigi on February 14, 2013, 01:57:02 PM

Hi guys.

I'm vectorizing the control panel artwork of a namco galaxian cocktail.

I'm stuck with the japanese fonts. I found something that looks similiar (MS Gothic) but it doen's satisfy me at all.

Any hint where to find the matching font?

Thanks :)

You might check with user Erwin, he had a good post a while back with some Japanese typesetting font info.

Unfortunately, the problem might then be it's for a typesetting machine only and not a TTF :(.
