I want to use it in autocad, but it puts a border on when printing

There's no exact match there, but you might get a better match if you remove the image from the logo first. Or ask on their forums I suppose.

Nice detective work.

It is a hideous typeface though. From its fussy little tittles to its frustratingly [i]just[/i] off horizontal baseline serifs I find it excruciatingly loathsome.

Don't use it jools182, I implore you. There can be no reason to justify type this ugly.

That font offends my delicate typographic sensitivities to an unbelievable degree. I get OCD about right angles, so those serifs are just plain wrong on every (non-) level

I'm totally with binners and debaser on this typeface, it's truly horrid! Typography was part of my job for many years, and that offends in [i]so[/i] many ways! It actually looks like someone's badly scanned something like Times, or Schoolbook, or whatever, then autotraced it and left it at that. Ugly, just... Ugly.
