Publisher's description of Font Safari

From Dreystone:

Let Font Safari be your guide as you navigate your system fonts.

View your fonts in the character maps view, telescope view, and see the entire font family rendering a common or custom phrase. Includes support for multiple language keyboard shortcuts and string encodings.

Font Safari allows you to view all of the characters in the font, and also allows you to simulate the font in alternative encodings such as Mac Roman, Windows ANSI, Unicode and other common text encodings. Font Safari displays valuable information about each selected character such as the US Keyboard shortcuts, UTF8 and UTF16 codes, and the Unicode name of each character.

Features:

• View all of the characters in the selected font in a compact table.
• Live resizing so you choose the size of the characters.
• Display the Macintosh US Keyboard shortcut (MacRoman encoding)
• Display the UTF8 and UFT16 codes.
• Display the Unicode name for each character

Pricing & Availability:

A single user license is $15.00 available to purchase through the dreystone.com website, and includes all upgrades for 18 months after the date of purchase.

Editor's review of Font Safari

• 5.0 stars

• "Navigate your system fonts with ease"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Font Safari 1.0.2

If you want an easy way to look at your font library, Font Safari provides the most straightforward approach. A simple window with font styles on the left makes choosing the font for viewing a snap. In a larger preview window on the right, you can view selected fonts in a character maps view; get up close with characters using the telescope (or zoom) view; or you can view the entire alphabet, in both cases with numbers, using the snapshot view. We like the simple tabbed interface that makes viewing each type easy. You also can get keyboard shortcut information about all the characters of a specified font. Font hobbiests and design professionals will appreciate Font Safari's simple but effective interface and options.
