thanks, I thought it was Tahoma but the firm that sent this to us claims it to be Gothic. is it one of those like Swiss vs Helvectia?

[FONT=&amp]A Gothic typeface is not at all anything like medieval lettering. It actually comes from grotesk, or grotesque which began around 1900. It's basically a synonym for sans-serif and is a movement that originated in the Scandinavian area and widely applied by the bauhaus.

Tahoma it is.

I was gonna basically say the same thing. My guess is they were referring to the type of typeface, no pun intended. They probably just got the style confused with the name of the typeface.
