I found "Spage Age" for the bottom one:

And maybe try identifont (http://www.identifont.com/identify.html) for the top one ;)

I hate having to search for fonts, a current client of mine gave me a jpeg of their logo and said they didn't have the font for it. Took me almost the entire day to find what they were told was a "custom designed" font. I did find it on a free font website so it looks like they paid for a custom logo that wasn't custom...

Almost any font from logos I've been given I've found can be recreated using the default fonts on XP/Vista with various width and/or height skewing.

Personally I think the Axia part is just a vector creation.

Did you check the dates when the font was made available & when their logo was created ?

I imagine "custom" fonts are often sold to font sites/etc a short while after being developed for one client.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.
