Advanced Font Viewer - A Lever That Strengthens Your Creative Effort


The leverage is well known but I will allow myself to remind you what it is. By using a lever you go a longer distance, but benefit in the applied strength. It's not accidental that this effective principal is successfully used by crooks - they use jemmy to pick locks and bolts. So why not use the lever principle for your own goals?

Advanced Font Viewer - this is your lever. As you could guess from the title, it is a program for working with fonts. Fonts are used everywhere where it is needed to transfer the information through text, i.e. any website, book, magazine, newspaper, greeting card, commercial, banner...Fonts surround us all day long and throughout our whole lives. Such wide use of fonts in our everyday life was caused by a huge variety of them. So, what's the way to cope with this wide selection and make the right choice of a font?

A lot of people limit their choice to the font selection tools that are built into their programs, and don't even suspect that they could use the leverage here - they could use a program created specially for these purposes. This is a logical continuation of the main program functions that strongly increases your abilities in the choice of fonts and gives this task a previously unknown convenience.

The choice of available fonts is not longer limited to a pathetic pop-up list, it is now carried out with a full screen list. You can see the samples of the selected font - for example, "Company Name" in any color, style and size of font. The list of fonts available for viewing is not limited to the set fonts only, you can also see the not preset fonts from any folder and any disk.

You can try the program out and see for yourself that the program options are not limited to the ones mentioned above.

Hmm...I can't quite tell...is this spam or are you just really amped about a program that lets you view your fonts?

btw...plenty of us around here already use some type of font viewer, and yep, they're great. Did you just find out about them or something?

The spam is sent with robots about any nonsense not on a theme.

Oh no, spam comes in all kinds of personally delivered varieties, I assure you. Most of these little bundles of joy are also brought to us by members who just signed up for the purpose, so the fact that you only had one post here only supported this assumption. But you will notice that I didn't accuse you of anything...just inquired into the energy behind your statements.

Let me also say that I wasn't trying to be in any way unkind with my remarks. It just seemed a little strange that you were so pumped about a font viewer. I think it's great that you are mind you, I don't know what I would do without mine.

Rush, what font viewer are you using? I have a dream that there's an app that I can organize and cross reference different types of fonts for example:

Oceans 11 font can be found if I select Vintage or cursive font types

or, Some asian symbol font would be under Foreign or wingdings

I hope that makes sense...

Heheh...a quote...that's funny.

I've been using Bitstream Font Navigator for years...I think it came bundled with CorelDRAW. The one thing that I find lacking in it though, is the limited number of preset font sizes...most notably I can't set it for the small pixel sizes that are so important for viewing pixel fonts. So at some point I downloaded 'The Font Thing', but that's pretty much all I use it for...previewing pixel fonts. I still do all my installing/uninstalling with Font Navigator, which I've been quite happy with.
