• Excellent - Easy to use. All I needed.

  someguyinohioDecember 3, 2013

  Pros

  Simple to use. Displays fonts / characters in a vertical column. Allows the use of a key phrase - perfect some applications.

  Cons

  Not extremely powerful - just as the software creator said. Would like to view more than just a vertical column to see more fonts - faster. But that is not this software's intent. So not really a minus.

  Summary

  Excellent software - for free! Thank You - Allen Smith.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Works well, does what it says. Fast and light on the system. (And of course you can't beat the price : ) ) A request (for SOMEONE): is it possible to write an application just like this, but in which one could view a database of fonts -- whether or not they are installed?? That person will be rich. Do it!

• Very convenient, simple

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Allows me to customize a font catalog with specific fonts, export it as an rtf and import it into InDesign for further editing. It came in handy when I wanted to show the client what I'd be using on their publication. Simple and elegant. I've always wanted this capability and am amazed that commercial font managers don't really do this specific thing. Thanks.
