FastFontPreview

FastFontPreview is an intuitive and approachable software application made to help you view and manage fonts installed on your system, as well as to set up new ones. It has a built-in Explorer-based folder structure.

After a speedy and uncomplicated installation procedure, you are welcomed by a user-friendly interface, based on a normal window with a clear-cut structure.

You can use the tree view to navigate Explorer directories and locate folders with fonts. By default, the app loads the "Fonts" subfolder from the "Windows" folder.

Each font is listed in a separate entry, and you can inspect its character map and file properties, as well as get a Windows sample of all uppercase and lowercase letters, along with numbers and symbols. This information can be printed with one click.

What's more, you can organize all the fonts from a selected directory in alphabetical order, customize their color, install new fonts, minimize FastFontPreview to the system tray area to make it non-intrusive, save the sample text, hide the splash screen, as well as change the default font size displayed.

Unsurprisingly, the software utility had low impact on computer performance in our tests, running on low CPU and RAM. It didn't trigger the operating system to hang, crash or show error messages.

Although it doesn't implement rich options or configuration settings, FastFontPreview delivers a simple and effective solution to viewing fonts and installing new ones, and it can be handled with ease by anyone.
