Has perhaps the most useful font tool you will find on the Internet. With this Flash app, you can view any true type or open type font installed on your computer at any size between 1 and 99 points.

I'm going to keep a copy of the Internet shortcut on my desktop, and many of you may want to do the same.

Any font manager will do better, including the ones NOT installed.

Could one work with fonts without a font manager?
