What the Font : Tool that can help identify fonts

What the Font is a great tool that can help identify fonts. Just upload an image or enter an image URL and let “What the Font?!” do the rest, telling you what font is being used. Step I: upload your sample. If the sample image has a lot of background noise or is low contrast, then spend a minute in PhotoShop, to lighten or remove the background and increase the contrast.Step II: ensure that What The Font has correctly identified the glyphs, then hit “search”.

Tips for optimal results:

  • Try to get the text as horizontal as possible.
  • Letters should be around 100 pixels tall in your image.
  • Make sure letters aren’t touching each other.

If your sample isn’t identified, then you can submit it to the What The Font Forum, a place inhabited by type-nuts, who will often go out of their way to identify your typeface. This forum has a very high success rate!
