Description: A font viewer for Type 1 and TrueType fonts
gfontview is a font viewer for outline fonts, PostScript(tm) Type 1 and
TrueType(tm).
.
gfontview allows you to display a particular character or string of a
font in an own window, thus allowing a comparison between several fonts
with a particular string sample. This character or string can be
antialiased (smoothed). The string can also consider the kerning pairs if
available in the AFM or TTF file. The displayed character or string can be
saved in GIF format.
.
A table with all glyphs in the font (for PostScript Type 1 fonts also
in several encodings) can also be created. A custom encoding will be
generated on the fly to allow you to see all characters (also not
encoded ones) in a Type 1 font, the so called "Custom" encodings.
.
You can also print a sample of a font. The program generates PostScript
code with sample strings in several sizes, which you can download to any
PostScript printer or to ghostscript.
.
TrueType fonts can be saved as Type42 PostScript fonts.
