Font Managers - Viewers - FontList for Windows

SUMMARY: FontList is a freeware application for Windows that creates HTML files displaying installed fonts.

FontList is a freeware Windows application from Edwin Martin that creates HTML files displaying all fonts installed on your system. The simple dialog box lets you customize the sample text, where the HTML file is placed, and whether or not to include Symbol, non-English, and Raster fonts in the output.

Besides displaying all installed fonts on your system, the output HTML file lets you preview fonts in bold and italics as well as switching between a small and larger font size. Via a "CharMap" button you can open a window displaying a font's character map, especially useful with symbol fonts.

Note: this program does not output graphical representations of the fonts; it includes stylesheet references to the installed font names. Thus if you distribute the output HTML file to someone who does not have your installed fonts on their system, the output may not look as intended.
