Type a word, a name or a headline and see it in every font installed on your computer at once, so you can pick the right one for a logo, invitation, sign or website. Change the size, weight, italic, letter spacing and colors, star your favorites, and open any font to see it at every size and with all its characters. Drop in your own TTF, OTF or WOFF files to try fonts before installing them, or switch to Google Fonts to compare popular web fonts, including Japanese, Chinese and Cyrillic ones.

How to choose a font
Start with what the text has to do. Body text needs a calm, readable font, usually a sans serif like Inter or a classic serif like Georgia. Headlines and logos can be bolder or more characterful. Type your actual words rather than a pangram, since letter combinations in your brand name or title can look very different from the sample.
Check the font at small and large sizes in the waterfall, and make sure it has every character you need, such as accents, € or numbers in the style you want.
Font pairing tips
- Pair a serif headline with a sans serif body, or the other way round.
- Use at most two families; add contrast with weight and size instead.
- Pick fonts with similar x-heights so mixed text looks even.
- For invitations, a script font for names works best with a simple serif for details.
Web fonts, system fonts and licenses
System fonts like Arial, Georgia and Segoe UI load instantly but look different on each operating system. Web fonts such as Google Fonts look the same everywhere and are free to use, including commercially, under the Open Font License. Fonts that came with your computer or that you bought may have licenses that limit use on websites or in logos, so check before you publish.
Privacy
Installed fonts are detected in your browser and uploaded font files stay on your device. Google Fonts are only requested after you press Load Google Fonts.
