FontExpert - The first Typeface Recognition Software

The variety of digitized typefaces is immense. To identify definitely, which typeface has been used to create a printed document, is very often a difficult and time-consuming business. There are so many different versions of a certain typeface and also lots of new and modern creations that you cannot find in the typebooks of the traditional foundries. So, in many cases your search for a typeface match for the work in hand may end fruitlessly after hours of effort and manual search.
With FontExpert typeface recognition is not a problem anymore. Just scan in the document you want to analyse, and let the software do the rest. The FontExpert database knows more than 25,000 typefaces by all important type foundries. Within a few seconds the searched typeface is recognized. The name of the font and the type foundry are shown. Other typefaces that also look similar are listed as alternatives. A bitmap image of each typeface will be shown.
The FontExpert database gives you a most complete catalogue of all stored typefaces and their foundries.
