The font is called Bariol.
And, so you know how I figured it out (even though I've never heard of the font before), I downloaded the presentation PDF and then opened it in Illustrator. Illustrator was happy to tell me which fonts were missing from my system:

If you need help identifying a font sample, there are lots of resources.
Some are automated, you submit a sample screenshot or go through a series of questions that help narrow the possibilities:

Whatthefont.com says FF Netto OT-Bold
You can find it here
It's kinda expensive... $215 or $54
I suggest something like Arial Rounder Narrow if you don't insist on perfect match :)
Good Luck!

It looks like Impact font to me judging by the long letters and somewhat condensed shapes. All they did was used a bevel or inside shadow effect and applied a warp or a text shape to the word. Check this link out and use show by its caps. http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/urw/impact/%7CImpact
Here's my quick rendition -- you can tell those letters match ...

It's Cocon Pro Offc Regular by Evert Bloemsma/FontFont and it has a large family that you can use too. You can buy it at FontShop. You can enter "Beanstalk" in the textbox on he website to compare it to the logo.

None of these are an exact match, but many of them are very similar to that font:
http://www.fontspace.com/search/?q=jersey&text=JOSEPHITE&fontsize=80&foreground=000000&background=FFFFFF
I would say that this one is the closest, and would match almost exactly if you offset it in illustrator to make it a bit thicker:

I have been looking for this also, my findings are:
Noteworthy is Filmotype Brooklyn, available at Font Bros (and other font shops) for about $29
http://www.fontbros.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?preadd=action&key=FILM-BROO
Filmotype Alice is a lighter weight:

Taking a look at the Wikipedia entry for Georgia, they mention that it is influenced by Clarendon typefaces.
Here's Georgia:
Here's URW Clarendon:
Update
Not knowing your exact purpose, you might also want to consider simply using numbers from a more commonly available similar font. Times New Roman, for example, isn't too different, and mixing the ...

That is not a font. (Font meaning digital file for a typeface)
That is an actual typewriter page which has been scanned and then converted to a PDF. The PDF only contains Lucida, Lucida Bold, and Lucida Italic.
If You are merely searching for Typewriter fonts MyFonts.com has a large selection.

You are looking for Yukarimobile (it's free, too):
http://www.whatfontis.com/Yukarimobile.font?text=rythm
I found it by monochromizing it and cleaning up the edges a little bit, then fed it to WhatFontIs.com.

The US Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has a thorough set of guidelines for all of it's signage. You can purchase the fonts through DGI Traffic.
The type used by the Forest Service is referred to as ASA Series C in the FS docs. The FHWA more commonly refers to the type as FHWA Series fonts but they appear to be the same. That name is applied to both ...

The sans used for captions is Neutraface 2. (found that out by going to The New Yorker's website and looking at their CSS).
The text face was identified by WhatTheFont! as LTC Caslon Regular and it looks pretty much close to really being so.

Looks like Century Schoolbook Roman to me:
The swirl on the 'st' is a stylistic ligature that's common among typographers (and available in many OpenType fonts), but pretty rare in real-world use. The gap in the crossbar of the 't' is probably custom.
Further reading on ligatures if you're interested.

Actually, this is Catull Regular with minor manual changes. It was created in 1982 by German designer Gustav Jaeger for Berthold. Also see this.

For 'astrology' and 'crystals' they used a modified version of Walkway
The ampersand is a different font, looks like something in the Clemente font family

The script is Bickham Script Pro, a face that ships with any of the Adobe Creative Suite apps, or is available directly from the Adobe website. The sans is Myriad Pro Light Condensed. I would guess that whoever put this together is a Photoshop user, since both of these ship with Photoshop.
There are a bazillion ornaments like this on iStockphoto.

I believe it's called Sketch Rockwell.

There's also a face called ChunkFive that's similar:

It's custom designed - the neat joins between B and W, and s and t didn't happen by accident - but looks to be based on ITC Century Std Bold Condensed.
Mockup of 'Best Western' text sample - you might need to click into one of the controls to get it to display correctly.

The "diagonal words" are called 'catchwords'. An example from the wood type era:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicksherman/540073007/sizes/m/in/photostream/
For simple geometric sans such as the ones in the photos, you can certainly make your own. There are fonts that have them built in, however:

Found it! It's Levi Brush by Levi Szekeres:
The font is free for personal use, but commercial use requires the author's permission. I also found this comments page on the dafont.com, where the font's author writes:
"The Guetta guy didn't bothered paying to use the font, but probably it's not his fault, he must have some ignorant designer. Ironic, if ...

Generally these are single line/stroke fonts for Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines. Most don't have a specific name or foundry. They simply are supplied with CNC software from the manufacturer.
CNC machines are computer driven cutters/engravers used in manufacturing many items which need to be custom shaped or carved. I suspect signs such as those ...

Aloha, that is a great question and I love our font too! I think what others have shared about Garamond is a close match but the KING'S HAWAIIAN logo is actually a custom font so there isn't really an exact match, just something close. You might be able to find another font that has a similar for just the N and the H. Mahalo for the support and have a nice ...

Looks like Aller by Dalton Maag.
Samples:
I think all the text on the page is the same font, but in varying weights.
The broken R, K and X make it distinctive and at first I thought it may have been Klavika (also known as "The Facebook font") which also has those features, but it clearly isn't.
Note: as pointed out to me in the comments, there is a ...

If you're trying to create a 3D ribbon effect, start drawing ;)
As others noted, this is custom. The reason you will not find a font (in addition to Microsoft's IP lawyers) is the complex shading. The commonly accepted font formats do not support illustrative gradients and borders.
Besides, the effect in the MS example could be greatly improved upon. The ...

I also disagree with Alan. ;) The subheads are clearly American Typewriter Bold.
Hmm. Looking closely at the name, it's not Myriad either. You can tell by the "B" and "r". Doing a bit more digging.
EDIT: Definitive Answer
I opened up his resume, downloaded from his website, in Adobe Acrobat. He uses:
American Typewriter
Calibri (included with Windows ...

We get a lot of font identification questions, you should check out this link.
However, I ran the header through WhatTheFont and some close matches were:
Interstate Compressed UltraBlack
Though, the R doesn't have the curve on the bottom...
Folio Bold Condensed
Though, the font isn't as heavy...
I hope this helps.
As for the "retro" effect, I ...

Unfortunately this image didn't work very well with WhatTheFont, I did a little adjusting to the image and passed it through again.
Unfortunately, I got no perfect matches, but here are some very similar fonts:
Whitman Display Comp Black
Gomorrah
Consort RR Bold Condensed
Benton Mod Disp Comp Bold
To the untrained eye, and without any ...

Museo. http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/museo.html
For future reference, http://new.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ is really useful for finding out what a font is called (though I admit I recognised this one)

I'm sorry to tell you that you're probably going to come up empty-handed. The word "Werewolf" in this poster was hand-lettered (ie- the letters were drawn by hand). You can tell by comparing the two "E"s—If this was a font, the two letters would be identical, however the ragged edges on each of them is subtly different, meaning that it must have been hand ...

The closest match I could find is Bryant, but there are some subtle differences, particularly in the letters K and E and in the shapes of the numbers (which look very close but not quite the same). Of course, the "RO" part of the logo is obviously custom, so it's hard to say how much the rest might have been tweaked as well.
