Hi all,
Can anyone identify this numberplate style font
http://print-process.com/product/?product-id=159
It is similar to Alpha Headline by Lineto but it's not the same.
Thanks and Merry Christmas!

K-Type's Mandatory is close. Very close.

Yes, very close, the cap m is quite different though. When I searched for that font the first result was a free pirated version. Bit of a worry.

Another two very similar (right M):

Nope, Mandatory is still a K-Type freebie. I still don't know if they're redistributable.

It doesn’t seem a “freebie” to me.
And on their website it’s free for personal use only.

I'm sure you noticed I did not say that it was 'freely available'.

Hi Guys,
Great work, thanks for your help!

This pdf shows the letters. Have a feeling there may have been some comments about the font not being designed by a type designer back in the day, someone remind me.
You could also do a search on Charles Wright.
