Testimonials:

”I must say that you have the best font program that I have ever used. I have been an art director and a graphic designer for over 40 years and I've run into a lot of them but none that had not only the ease of use, but also the complete coverage that yours has. It is a wonderful font program and I'm sure that many more out there agree with me.”

Annie Wilkin, art director and graphic designer

”I just wanted to let you all know how deeply satisfied I am with your product. I have been using FontExpert for almost 2 years now and it is the best font manager program I have ever seen or used. As a graphic designer this program is invaluable and I have recommended it to many of my friends and fellow designers. Keep up the good work!”

Doug Cloud, designer

”Hi, it's not my habit to send this type of message, but this is an exception because your program also does it. I'm a web font collector, and a foreigner languages student (without presumption, I write in Japanese, French, Romanian, and Spanish, my native language), and sometimes the fonts I want to use have not all the characters I need, so I have searched for a font viewer program by too much time, and the best I found among all of them (maybe 30 or 40) is FontExpert. I want to tell you 'Congratulations!' because there is no a program more complete. Show the fonts by language, show the Unicode characters, browse in others folders, customize the text sample are just a few options that we can find in many others programs, but never gathered together. When I want to search a special character in a 'dingbats' font, it's very easy. All the other options as color and size change are very useful. Besides, the appearance of the program is really cool. I could gamble my soul to defend that FontExpert is, and will be the best font manager and viewer that ever existed.”
