Hi All,

I'm looking for a little help on this one... I'm having trouble identifying the font (and obtaining a font file) for the serial numbers of notes in the Multicoloured and Birds series.

The font used on the Journey series is an international standard (OCR-B), but my attempts to identify the previous font have come up empty so far.

If you can successfully identify the font, I will be very grateful.

Thanks,

Brent, I can't answer your question, but do you perchance know the name of the font used in the serial numbers of 1954 notes?  Is there even a name for it?  Perhaps it is proprietary to the BoC?

Maybe you should stick to printing Journey notes.... ;D
