Description:

 

FontsView is a simple text previewer with the font of your choice.  Sometimes, it's not very easy to pick the best font especially if you have hundreds of them to choose from.  FontsView will let you quickly preview text with a given font so that you can pick the best choice.  Choosing File > Export, you can generate an HTML file with lines of text with all available fonts along with a text color and text size of your choice.

  3. The frame type of the Favorite Fonts window is changed to Floating (was Global floating).
