    Would someone here know what the typeface is that is used on the ExpressionEngine.com home page (“Say hello to the most flexible web publishing system you’ll ever meet”). It’s a graphic so I can’t derive it from the page code. A client would really like to use that typeface in a project I’m working on…

    Thanks! 😊

    Actually, I think it’s a typeface out of the Scene family by Agfa-Gevaert.

    Hello! :D

    I think the “Alt Light” may be available separately for about $53… I’ll have to find out.

    For those interested… the Scene Alt Light (the font in question) is part of the Scene Light package that can be had for $39.00 in TrueType format from Fonts.com. Much better than $583 for the entire font family! :D
