FastFontPreview - freeware font viewer
mouser:
I noticed something interesting at the company site which makes Fast Font Previewer, a font "finding" tool which lets you put in a letter image and it searches to find a matching font in your collection. No idea how well this works.

The whole website needs a good overhaul and screenshots is a sore subject that I know I need to fix. I have been putting it off but will try and get new screenshots up this weekend.

How would you want them handled? -Veign (January 04, 2008, 10:13 AM)

Wow!
My problem (on this matter) is that I have downloaded a lot of fonts packed in zip containers (EDIT: one or a few in each container), but some / far too many also have readme and other prank inside the container, so it all gets tiresome to unzip / seperate / move to > install / whatmorecanIthinkof.
What can be done?
Veign:
I will give some thought about peeking inside of a Zip file to preview and install a font. It may take a while, but sounds interesting enough to take on as a project.
Veign:
I reviewed a few things and what I will do is change the Font Packager, which I have never been totally happy with, to work with Zip files instead of the custom file format I developed. What this means is you will be able to create and handle font packages (zip files of fonts) from within Cfont Pro.
It will be slick when completed.
