What font is this???

I cannot figure out what font this is, and any help would be VERY APPRECIATED. I thought it was Arial, but the C is different.

  1. AT Triumvirate Light

  2. Just to correct the answerer above, the typeface in your image is NOT AT Triumvirate. While the other four letters are similar, the "C" in AT Triumvirate is curved differently from the "C" in your example, which is a perfect circle. The weights of the two typefaces are also slightly different. The Identifont option at myfonts.com is helpful but it is not always accurate.

    You actually have me a bit stumped, and I am usually fairly good at idenitifying typefaces. The only typeface that I am aware that has a capital "C" in a perfect circle similar the one you have in your image is the Avant Garde typeface, but even in this case the "C" is slightly different, not to mention the other letters do not match. You can see an example of the Avant Garde typeface here...

    My best educated guess is that whoever created this image took the letters T, R, A, and K from one typeface such as Helvetica, Univers, or AT Triumvirate (Arial was not used here, since the capital "R" of Arial does not look like the one shown in your image) and replaced the "C" with the one from another typeface such as Avant Garde. It is not that uncommon in the world of graphic design to incorporate multiple typefaces into one unit for the sake of beauty, and I believe that was what was done here. There is chance that there your image is from an actual typeface, but if I'm having trouble finding it would likely be even more difficult for you to find it.

    With that said, AT Triumvirate is a good replacement for what you are looking for. Another good replacement is the typeface Folio. While the capital "C" is not a perfect circle like what you have shown in your image, it is fairly close as well as all the other letters you have shown.
