Most of the articles I've read refer to it as a typeface or font so I assumed it was some sort of faux-calligraphy font and that it was used to track down he specific edition of the book it's torn from. Then again like 90% of those articles are from conspiracy theory blogs so they might be full of poo poo.

Oh god help. Just bought Univers Com 57 Condensed and Univers Com 47 Light Condensed, but the leading (?) is completely different between the two of them on iOS and it's foul and ugly.

Magically fixed, apparently.

If it's straight from the foundry or their distributor, this is a straight-up customer service issue and you should be able to talk to someone about it. e: or what toby said hi toby

Yeah man  Lobster is getting bad... like really bad. I used to dig it but I am straight up sick of looking at it. I'm wondering if the designer kicks him or herself for making the license SIL. That seems like the first step towards making sure a font is used to death.

Does anyone have any recommendations to a sleazy, porno-esque font? Sort of along the lines of these (doesn't have to be the same fonts, just looking for something in between or similar):

Almost any font can look sleazy if you dress it up in neon and use it to type out "backdoor college coeds vol 58" or whatever http://www.sudtipos.com/fonts/

I figure this is as good a place to ask as any, since I've always been curious: I've seen fonts that claim to be free for public use, despite the fact that they are very obviously associated with someone else's intellectual property. For instance, just browsing through dafont, I ran into the typeface from Assassin's Creed and Transformers, both apparently free for commercial use. How does that work? Surely the people that bankroll movies and games and such paid somebody to design a distinctive font, so can someone else really fill in the gaps and then give it away, or would a using a font like that for commercial purposes be a possible legal issue? I mean it's probably not a good idea to use the font from Transformers for something completely unrelated, but I've always wondered how the rights for fonts actually work.

Same as everything, I presume. You can't just edit the sprite of mario and say "Free for commercial use". There's some kind of plead of ignorance in these situations but I think it depends on how famous the source material is. I know a friend got hit real hard for using a sample from a samplepack that they legally bought, because the sample was illegally taken from a song without permission.

In the US, typefaces are not protected by copyright, only the actual .ttf or .otf file is protected.

It's a variant of Alternate Gothic. The curl of the R and stem of the Q narrow it down to Lorimer no. 2 Condensed, but really, any condensed font should fit the bill.
