Need a free font to match Skynews font...

[djkav]

Hi, I like the look of the Skynews font. I know its a custom font for Sky.

Does anyone know what free font would closely match it.

Here is a sample:

 

[GravyMonster]

According to Firebug the font is 14px Tahoma, 1.36em line height, colour #666

*edit*
Oh, you mean the bold bit don't you. I'm not on the ball at all today.

If it's on the web it won't be a custom font.

 

[GravyMonster]

Yes it will. It's a custom font they've got setup as 'SkyNewsRegular'. Try What the Font.

*edit again*
Did it for you, the closest match is Direct Semi: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/artlebedev/direct/semi-condensed/

Awesome thanks Spunkey. I'll remember "What the Font" for future reference
