Tolkien Font

***Valandil*** · 10-08-2003, 12:44 PM

Anyone...

A few years ago my wife found a very nice "Tolkien" font - I forget if it was for MS Word or WP (and I'm not the MOST astute computer user). Anyhoo - we had a crash at some point and could never recover / find the font since.

Does anyone have this... and / or know where it can be found?

There are several tengwar fonts, and some cirth. I've never been able to successfully download one... They are on Dan Smith's Fantasy Font Webpage.

I downloaded one from that site and it works great. Here's the site if you want to try: http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/4948/

Thanks, Shadowfax.
I've also been looking for a site like the one given above. It's good for Tengwar and Runic fonts, and information on them.

Hey a Tolkien font, that'd make a brilliant educational product.

Cool! My son is doing The Hobbit for a school reading project and these fonts will be great.

Many thanks
