Does anyone know the name of this font?
Sorry if this post must be in another subforum; please, could anyone of you tell me the name of the font used in the picture below:
I used the service of http://www.whatfontis.com/ and https://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ and I couldn't find anything. Thank you very much in advance for any info that you can supply me. Rubén |

Any chance you have a slightly clearer or larger picture? I haven't been able to get any good results from my list of font identifier sites.

I couldn't find the same font, but a somewhat similar Art Nouveau font is Eckmann.

Many thanks for your answer. That font is used in the book (now in public domain) "Las Mil Noches y Una Noches" for the J.C. Mardrus' translation (that Vicente Blasco Ibañez translated to spanish). You can read (or download if you wish) online any of the 23 tomes from Internet Archive. In any of those books you'll be able to see better the font of my picture. Many thanks again for your help.

Thank you very much for your help. Indeed, is not the font I'm looking for, but a good replacement, especially for those titles that are not fully written in uppercase. Many thanks again. Rubén |

In fact Baldur has several features of the font I'm looking for; thank you very much. Sometime ago you had started the project of converting to epub "The Thousand Night and a Night" (from Burton's and/or Payne's translation); well, I wanted to see if I could do the same with "Las Mil Noches y Una Noches" from J. C. Mardrus' translation (in the spanish version of Vicente Blasco Ibañez). In the original books published at the end of the XIX century by "Editorial Prometeo" (now in public domain) is utilized that font (whose name I can't find ) and as I liked it, I thought to employ it in a future epub. Thanks again for your help. Rubén |
