If you do a lot of document processing or graphic design, then more than likely you will deal with a large number of fonts under Win95. With cryptic names, it can be hard to figure out which font to use in a document; sometimes you just have to keep changing the font in a word processor document to see which one is right for you. Instead of previewing fonts using that method, you can try this.

First, select the "Start" menu. Select "Settings," and then "Control Panel." Double-click the "Fonts" icon on the window that appears. Now, double-click any font you wish to preview. A window will be brought up showing font copyright information, and the font in various point sizes.
