Product Description:

FontMatch is a desktop font matching utility which allows you to load a scanned text character and then scan through the fonts on your hard drive to see if you have a font that matches. In addition, if you don't have an exact match, FontMatch will rate your fonts based on closeness of the fit.

What's new in this version:

  • Universal Binary version available for Mac OS X
  • FontMatch now tries to recognize the character you loaded, and places it's guess in the character field.
  • New Text Preview window so you can view a string of characters in the selected font.
  • New "Symbol" mode which searches every character of each font when looking for a match. Great for looking for symbols or dingbats!
  • Menus and screens have been localized for Spanish and French.
  • Operating System Requirements:

    This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

    • Mac OS X 10.4 Intel

    I have not tried FontMatch, so this is NOT a comment upon its abilities or functionality. However, those who wish to identify fonts for free might like to try the web site http://www.identifont.com/identify.html which takes a step-by-step, 'process of elimination' approach. It can take a few minutes, but it's normally remarkably accurate.

    FontMatch may perform even better, and of course it has the added benefit of not requiring an internet connection, but IMHO I would at least try the free online option before spending fifty buck on an application.
