[scribus] Identify font

[Marco Boeringa]

Thanks all for the responses so far.

Waauw, that "WhatTheFont" is a cool tool Steve Herrick! It didn't
identify the font (but it might not be in the database), but the
similarities between the font I posted, and the ones it came up with,
was pretty close, especially the "Fishmonger MT Plain" font, although clearly still a different font...:

Here is the whole list of "similar" fonts it turned up... not bad!:

This could be a really useful tool if it contained the majority of all fonts...

Greg, I am aware of the Open Font Library, thanks for referencing it.
John, I think the above font Fishonger MT Plain is a closer "match", but thanks for the suggestion of
"Frutinger Roman"

Marco, I don't have time right now to look up the address, but google
"what the font".
