Get your fonts organized! (Get your fonts organized!)  Get your fonts organized!

System & Utilities
Organizer for fonts in not something 95% PC users will get excited about, but Fontonizer is making big waves in web-design and publishing industries. While an average PC has about one hundred different fonts installed - marketers, designers, publishers, editors and print professionals often have collections with 5000 different fonts or more. With so many fonts, only very experienced professionals can match font name with its appearance. But Fontonizer is not merely a font viewer, though it comes with this function built-in. Fontonizer is a font organizer.

With Fontonizer, any professional can easily classify fonts. First, one creates categories – like "Business Letter Body", "Groovy and Hip", "Classy", "Headlines", "Attention Grabbers", "Exotic", "Fine print", "Comments and footnotes", "Hand written", "Miscellaneous". Then, fonts are "placed" in these categories, so they can be easily located, when necessary. The best thing about Fontonizer is that it works with fonts that aren't currently installed on a PC. In fact, it works with fonts that are stored not only on hard-drive, but CDs, DVDs, flash-drives and External Drives.

Third, even though the fonts may not be installed, person can write a word or and sentence to see how it looks like. If necessary, Fontonizer will automatically show a list of the same word or phrase visualized with different fonts. This way one can easily compare and find the font that is most appropriate for a certain occasion.

Finally, Fontonizer comes with even more functions font professionals need. For example, the program performs installation /deletion/restoration of the deleted fonts. Plus, Fontonizer is capable of displaying "symbol table" of any font, even if it was deleted. Finally, with Fontonizer professionals can experiment not only with
fonts and sizes, but backgrounds as well.
