Years ago, they used to sell it (as a TrueType font) at the Computer
Store for $10. I still have it... J

 

They should still make it available, IMO.

What they are referring to is that the Arrow type font was used to
create the MSU logo, used to spell out Michigan State University.  I
believe that the Arrow type font is a type setters font, and not
available as a Microsoft true type font or other font usable with
windows printing.  There is no Arrow font that you can use in
applications like Word or Word Perfect that I know of.  You have to use
the logo as a graphic in your document.  

If your having a printing shop make up something with the MSU logo on
it.. they have to use the Arrow font to follow the standard.

The standard was not made with the windows environment in mind.

	Subject: [MSUNAG] MSU 'Arrow' Font Type

	I had an inquiry from a member of our staff today about the MSU
'Arrow' font type.  As mentioned on a couple official MSU pages:

	 

	"The OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY LOGOTYPE can only be reproduced as
featured in the Arrow type font."

	 

	The person making the inquiry mentioned that at one time a few
people in our department had the font installed, but we are unable to
locate it.  Searches on 'arrow font' through search engines are pretty
unrewarding, and searching MSU's site lead me to:

	 

	graphics.msu.edu

	 

	which mentioned the above statement, had downloadable images of
official logos once signed in, however still provided no link or
information about the font itself.

	 

	Any sources or further information would be appreciated.  Thank
you.

	 

	- Joe
