A font viewer allows you to view all your fonts in one place, create text samples, view characters, and sort by tags. Here's a view of the screen in mine. With the tag feature, you can sort and narrow down font choices, so you can pull up all the handwriting fonts at once, all serif, non-serif, cute, rounded, etc., or however you choose to label. It's great if you have quite a few fonts (if you could read the screenshot, you might see that I have almost 2000!) or are looking for a particular style and don't want to scroll all the way through to search for it.
Here's a screen shot of mine - it's difficult to read, but maybe you can see the format - the samples can be sized up to 72pt - much easier to see than in an editor's dropdown bar.
I, too am afraid to download fonts to my computer. I see such wonderful fonts on other people's cards, but I don't do it. Perhaps someone can "talk me into it" if they have worked with free fonts? Thanks so much!
skm330mks...I have these two files from a few years back that someone here on Splitcoast (sorry I don't remember who) put together and shared....maybe someone has updated it. SU Matching Fonts.xls
I use amp font viewer. It allows you to temporarily install fonts if like me you've just saved them to a folder rather than installing them all and taking up loads of disc space.
