7 FREE TOOLS TO IDENTIFY A FONT - Part 2

3. MESSAGE BOARDS: TYPOPHILE


This is probably the greatest and largest community of font experts. You get your answers simply by posting an image of the font you’re looking for in their forum. If unsuccessful there, most font sites have message boards where you can post questions and images about the fonts that you’re looking for.

4. BOWFIN PRINTWORKS


This site offers a ton of information as well as multiple online tools to help you find your font, by answering questions on the shape of the glyphs of the font in question. Similar to Identifont, but seems to be quicker to input all the data as it’s all in one page while Identifont goes through multiple pages and can get tedious. Includes guides for Script Fonts, Bauhaus-style Fonts, Sans Serif and Serif Fonts and Lined Fonts. The owner of the site is also willing to answer any font ID questions for free via email.

5. TYPENAVIGATOR


Developed by Fontshop, this one uses the same principles as the Bowfint system by asking questions about the shape of each character.
