Portable FontViewOK

Portable FontViewOK is a lightweight and portable program that shows all fonts currently installed on the PC, enabling users to customize font settings if they plan to print them (it is not possible to actually edit the fonts).

Since installation is not required, you can drop the executable file in any location on the hard disk and just click it to run.

There is also the possibility of saving Portable FontViewOK to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any PC with minimum effort and no prior installers.

An important aspect to take into account is that no new entries are added to the Windows registry or Start menu, leaving it clean after removal.

The interface is represented by a normal window split into two panels, where a list with the installed system fonts is shown at startup. You can view fonts from a specific folder.

The application automatically detects installed fonts on startup, letting you use them in either of the two panes for comparison.

It is possible to open a font's location in Windows Explorer, put the selected entry in the Clipboard as an image, as well as to edit the font size and other parameters (e.g. emphasis, color).

The app is very light when it comes to CPU and RAM, so its impact on computer performance is minimal. We have not come across any type of issues throughout our evaluation, since Portable FontViewOK did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs.

Portable FontViewOK offers an approachable interface for exploring system fonts, and it can be used by anyone, regardless of previous experience with computer software. You can change the style, colors, and type to compare in environments you actually use.
