I'm looking for a font but I have no idea what it's called. The teachers at my son's school use it but school's out (and the teachers who used it left the school for a new school) so I can't ask them.

I can best describe it as a "dot" font - the letters look like "Dot" writing where the there are "dots" on the ends of the letters and on the intersections.

Does anyone know what it's called so I can google and download it?

Thanks.

Can you scan something with that font and attach it?

ETA, there's also one called Cool Dots (http://cooltext.com/Fonts-Kids), but I don't like it as much and it's not a True Type font. Scruf (http://www.fonts.com/FindFonts/Detail.htm?pid=203923) is fun to look at but hard to read, as is Curlz (http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/detail.htm?pid=206023&grab_id=0&page_id=5235&query=curlz&SCOPE=Fonts).

Thanks for the suggestions!

Bummer that Cool Dots isn't ttf. I like that one.

I also found Luv Country Art (http://www.billybear4kids.com/fonts/fonts.htm).

But my computer says I shouldn't use it so my search continues...

Not exactly what you're looking for, but free, is Holiday Leftovers from Font Diner (http://fontdiner.com/main.html).

And, of course, there's always What the Font? (http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/)

Why does your computer suggest you shouldn't use it? Macs can use TrueType, I thought.

It says there's a problem with the file and not to use it.

I downloaded quite a few fonts while I was searching (5 to 10) and I got that message when I tried to install two of them. The others installed without problem.

How about the Dot2Dot (http://www.searchfreefonts.com/fonts/d30.htm) font?
