It is one of the few fonts I use regularly with capital letters for both upper case and lower case...

It is normally on every machine I've used in the past few years. I don't know if it is included with Windows or Office, but it comes with one of them. I'm sure a search on the Net will turn it up...

Oops! Sorry about that... I just linked to the first Google hit. I am sure you can find a free download. Just search Google for "BankGothic Md BT" or "BankGothic Lt BT".

Cool! It's a standard font on Macs. :maul

im downloading the whole font set for windows 2006 right now. Im sure it would be in there including more cool fonts that Im lacking right now.

It's BankGothicBT Medium, which is called out in the old Star Wars style guide. It's not used for the new packaging. Hope that helps.

You can zip it up and add it as an attachment to a post, but I don't think this board has a "file area" like some do. Also, there is a question about copyright...

I wish all these pesky copyright laws would just... blow away.....
