Jeopardy! Fonts
« on: November 21, 2008, 02:20:47 PM »
(I can't get search to play nice.)

I'm in the process of making a Jeopardy control for my web design class, and I need some font help.

 - What is the font used for the dollar values on the board?
 - What is the font used for the Final Jeopardy! answer, used during the 30 seconds?

Help is appreciated.

The on-screen font for the FJ! answer is Optima Semibold.  The dollar values font looks to be Univers 67 (although it seems to be a little thinner on screen).
