WhatTheFont is a powerful online tool that simplifies the process of identifying fonts from images.
Developed by MyFonts, it leverages advanced technology to help designers, typographers, and enthusiasts discover the names of fonts they encounter.
Here’s how WhatTheFont works and why it’s an invaluable resource for font identification.
How It Works
- Upload Your Image:
To use WhatTheFont, start by uploading an image containing the text you want to identify. This can be a photo, screenshot, or any image where the text is clearly visible. The tool supports various formats such as JPG, PNG, and GIF. - Analyze the Text:
Once you upload the image, WhatTheFont’s optical character recognition (OCR) technology scans the text.
It breaks down the characters and compares them to a comprehensive database of fonts to find potential matches. - View Suggestions:
After analysis, WhatTheFont presents a list of fonts that closely match the text in your image. Each suggested font comes with a sample and a link to view or purchase it.This allows you to quickly find and use the font you’re interested in. - Refine Results:
If the initial suggestions aren’t quite right, you can manually adjust the selection area of the text or provide more details to improve accuracy. This ensures you get the best possible match.
