Default Font Display Site

Hey guys,

I can't find a font I like. Is there a site that will let me type in the text and show me my text in a range of fonts? Then let me purchase the font aswell?

Cheers
Jason

not sure about typing in your text but most free font sites have previews of the whole charactor set for each font avial.
www.themeworld.com
www.acidfonts.com
www.getfreefonts.info
www.fontface.com

for when you know the name of the font but cannot find it here is a great search engine
www.fonthit.com

Most font sites do also allow you to type in sample text and have that shown in the font.

I've known a lot of people who only needed a word or two in the font to use this to their advantage (which would actually be copyright infringement).

I found that http://www.veer.com/flont/ was a great tool to preview fonts. A bit pricey for some, but take my word. These fonts are worth it. Not too many that resemble other font styles..

http://www.download.com/The-Font-Thi...4-1519711.html

this software is free. its for fonts already installed or just on your machine. instead of clicking through email font style to find which style you prefer, it displays them all in 1 shot.

What a great find! A few programs have this feature, but most don't which makes it very tedious to go through each one. Thanks!
