Hi Graphic Geeks :)

I have thousands of fonts burned onto a CD. I can't see what the font actually looks like unless I open the file.

What I am looking for is a way which I can just highlight the font name in Explorer where it will show me a graphical view of that font so I don't have to open / close the file.

Does such a command or app exist?

Thanks a bunch if you have a solution! :)

I found this. http://www.styopkin.com/

I installed it and it works, i'm sure you will be satisfied with it, unless this isn't actually what you are looking for.

Nice find Gohan. I think I may like that better than my current utility, which is ThumbsPlus 6.0

Wow... I feel like a gal in a candy font shoppe http://socalgal.digitalmntsnow.com/smileys/tastey.gif

I didn't know ThumbsPlus displayed fonts like that - and TPlus used to be my main graphics viewer wayback on Win98... and wayback before I got into graphics and PS. It was a good app.


Gohan, it's good to see you have no self-esteem issues ;)
