A desktop font identification solution that looks at the fonts on your computer, instead of comparing against every font available on the Internet. Have you ever had a customer or a colleague hand you a printed sample and ask if you had that font? Have you ever purchased a font only to find that you already owned a similar font that would have worked just fine?
Instead of calling all the designers you know for advice, you can ask FontMatch to “look” at a sample and compare it to each font on your computer. FontMatch compares positive and negative space in a manner very similar to the way your eyes do, matching patterns to determine the best “fit”. After examining each font, it displays two images side by side: the one you supplied, and FontMatch’s best answer or you can scroll through each of the answers, and see a percentage for each one that represents the closeness of the fit. Unlike the online matching utilities, this program matches only to the fonts that you already have in your computer.
