FontReview

FontReview is an exciting new font viewing tool for Windows 9x/Me/NT4/2000. FontReview hooks into the Windows Explorer interface and lets you quickly and easily view both installed and uninstalled TrueType fonts.

With FontReview installed, simply double click a TrueType file to see exactly what the font looks like. FontReview integrates smoothly with the Windows Explorer.

(see picture, left) Right clicking on the TrueType file displays a menu with options to view, print or install the font. FontReview can print three professional looking sample sheets and a character set chart for any TrueType font.

FontReview also distinguishes between TrueType and OpenType fonts. If an OpenType font is detected, it is displayed with the signature O icon.

This O icon is also used by Windows 2000 to designate OpenType fonts.
