It is almost impossible to count all the fonts that are available on the Internet. Some of them look almost identical, except for a few, minor details, which are noticeable only to professional users. On a smaller scale, if you want to know what fonts you can find on your hard drive, Font Viewer can help you. It lists all fonts which are installed on your computer, along with various examples.

There is nothing out of the ordinary when it comes to installing Font Viewer on your Windows powered computer. It comes in a small package and the setup process is very simple and straightforward. The software is compatible with most Windows editions and it only requires an installation of .NET Framework 2.0.

Your installed fonts are displayed in a large grid, on the software's interface. Besides their names, you will find examples on how they look in different styles, like normal, bold, italic or bold and italic. The examples contain the same words as the font's title, but you can type your own words, change the size of the fonts, their color and the background color, with a series of controls, located above the grid.

The program allows you to select one or more fonts, in a particular style and save the selection, so you can use it at a later date. You may export a selection, in the software's native format, as a plain text file or as a PDF document, in which your font settings and styles will be applied. The best part about Font Viewer is that you don't have to scan your folders, before it displays your fonts. Even if you run it for the first time, it will display all your fonts immediately.

Pros

You can view any font on your computer, in different styles and sizes. It is also possible to insert your own words to see how they look with certain font settings. The software lets you save font selections as well, if you want to use them at a later date.

Cons

The lack of a search function makes it difficult to locate a specific font. Any font that you install on your computer will appear on Font Viewer's interface, giving you a complete picture on your fonts collection.
