FontReport

FontReport is a super easy-to-use software that helps you preview fonts on your computer. Whether the fonts are already installed or you’ve got some external ones, it’s all good!

How to Get Started with FontReport

Once you download it, just unzip the folder and run the executable file. The best part? You don’t even have to install it! That means you can keep it on a USB drive or other portable storage devices and use it on any compatible computer without leaving any traces behind.

Understanding the Layout

The main window of FontReport is divided into three sections. The top section shows a sample text, the middle one lists properties of the font you’ve selected, and the bottom section has all available fonts laid out for you.

Customizing Your Preview

You can easily customize what text appears in the ‘Sample’ section. Just type in whatever message you want to see with that specific font! Plus, there’s a handy slider that lets you change the font size in real-time.

Quick and Easy Font Previewing

FontReport makes it super simple to preview fonts using drag and drop. Just drop your font file onto the main window, and voila! If you prefer, there’s also an ‘Add Fonts’ option under the ‘File’ menu.

Scanning Installed Fonts

If you're looking for fonts already on your computer, use the ‘Add Installed Fonts’ feature. It scans your system for TrueType and OpenType fonts so you can browse through them easily. You’ll get details like font name, family, glyph count, unicode ranges, code page ranges, and more!

The Bottom Line on FontReport

In short, FontReport is a handy tool that lets you play around with different fonts using your own sample text. Just slide left or right to adjust the font size as needed. It’s pretty effective for checking out how certain fonts look before deciding to install them on your computer!
