Do you mean Fortuna (not Fortune) if so it is available at Linotype or through FontShop or Adobe. Fortuna is a Commercial Font (expensive) there are many "freeware" clones - try looking on DaFont.com or DeviantArt for those.

I have Fortune Bold (not extra bold) If you want it, send an email to [email address]

I'll also tell you what I do when I'm font matching.

1. Look to see if you have a similar font already on your computer with a different name. Just type the word you're matching into Corel and start scrolling through the fonts.

2. Use a free font collection with category search options. I use www.1001freefonts.com
Then I choose if it is script or handwriting, etc. So that way you only have 20 fonts to look at, not 1001

3. Use a font lookup service. This can tell you other names for the font. I use www.whatthefont.com

4. And if you know the name of the font, try googling it. Some of the fonts are free, some of them are not.

If you can get Fortune Bold from InspiredImp you could convert it to outlines and then do an offset path around it to make it a bit more bold -- you may need to play with the spacing after doing this.
