Find my Font is a desktop application that helps you identify fonts in digital images. It opens a bitmap image and then searches online and goes through all the fonts on your computer and identifies the font(s) used by the letters in the scanned image.
You are provided with a list of matching fonts along with the matching accuracy for each one. You may also type text and see how well the matching went. It's ideal for graphic designers and creative professionals who would otherwise spend hours trying to find a matching font.

Version 3.0:
New:
The program will now identify fonts even if they are not located on the user's computer. It will communicate with our online font identification server and identify fonts within a few seconds. The online font matches are displayed along with the local (on your computer) matches and are sorted by matching accuracy.
The user may still see a preview of the matching fonts whether local or online.
Softonium Developments has created an extensive Online Font Database that contains all major Commercial and Non Commercial fonts. This database is used for online font identification and is enriched daily with new fonts to ensure that you can identify even the latest font releases.
Double clicking on an online identified font will take you to the Online Font Preview page. This page displays analytic details about the selected font in various tabs:
Font Information
Font Download links
Font preview Tab
Character Set Tab
Waterfall Tab
Sample Tab
Feedback Tab

Automatic text-wrap on long text previews

WhatTheFont will identify the font and then try to sell it to you. It will never tell you if you have the font already, or suggest a free one. Is that a real money saver?
