Publisher's Description
From FontGear:
FontGenius is a font identification utility for Macintosh.
FontGenius examines pictures and identifies typefaces of any text within a picture. Using advanced recognition technology, FontGenius will produce a list of likely fonts that match selected characters within an image, and will generate character previews of the matched fonts.
An internet search can also be performed on the list of results to locate, purchase, and download matched fonts.
FontGenius supports most image file formats, and can even grab an image right from your desktop.

"trial app won't input fonts paid version won't id them"
Version: FontGenius 2.1
Pros
errr, it removed some money from my account and used an hour of my time
Cons
the download on CNET is out of date so once it is downloaded you will have to repeat the process to get the up to date app, then delete the previously installed app from your derive - it doesn't over write. You then have the trial version - this will not let you download a font to ID so pretty useless as a trial. When I had found the way to pay - not within the app, but you have to go to the website of Font Genius, to which they do not give you a link, I had to go back to CNET. Finally downloaded and paid then manage to select my writing in an image and after an hour and $40 "No Matches Found"
The selection process is not user friendly - once you made your initial selection area a box instantly appears asking what the selected text says. Fine if you have made the correct selection area, but if the selection is not correct it is incredibly frustrating to deep having to close and re define, every time you release the tool, the dialog box reappearsSummary
Useless waste of time and money
