The description of FontMatch - Play With New Friends
A desktop font identification solution that looks at the fonts on your computer, instead of comparing against every font available on the Internet. Have you ever had a customer or a colleague hand you a printed sample and ask if you had that font? Have you ever purchased a font only to find that you already owned a similar font that would have worked just fine?Instead of calling all the designers you know for advice, you can ask FontMatch to “look” at a sample and compare it to each font on your computer. FontMatch compares positive and negative space in a manner very similar to the way your eyes do, matching patterns to determine the best “fit”. After examining each font, it displays two images side by side: the one you supplied, and FontMatch’s best answer or you can scroll through each of the answers, and see a percentage for each one that represents the closeness of the fit. Unlike the online matching utilities, this program matches only to the fonts that you already have in your computer.A desktop font identification solution that looks at the fonts on your computer, instead of comparing against every font available on the Internet.
