LOGO /FONT
All available fonts are in zip format, download, unzip, go to control panel / fonts/ place file in folder. All links are to fee paying fonts, download links are very similar fonts that are free and available.

1999- 2002
First Album font used on a trio of albums  13 single releases,  up until 'World Of Our Own' in February  of 2002. Eurostyle font is a match but is a commercial (fee paying ) font. Microgamma was the original name (1952) for the font that later became Eurostile (1962) and was slightly 'de'-extended and given a full-character set. Another fee paying font that is almost identical is Square 721. Free fonts  that are similar include Eurasia, but you would need to change font style to 'bevelled and embossed' to get same effect.

FONT TYPE

2004
This appears not to be a font, either a custom made font or original artwork.

 


2005
Face To face Album. Again main Westlife logo stays the same, Album title is unique font for artwork. The first Clarendon font was introduced in 1845 by R Besley & Co, The Fan Street Foundry, as a general purpose bold for use in conjunction with other faces in works such as dictionaries. In some respects, Clarendon can be regarded as a refined version of the Egyptian style and as such can be used for text settings, although headline and display work is more usual.
