As the subject says:
Any way to show actual FONT STYLES in some quick view method or font display window for free or low price???
What I am looking for is something like we had way back in System 8 and 9 and applications like AppleWorks that showed all the available fonts in a drop down menu that also was able to display the style of each font in a WYSIWYG format.
Specifically, I would like to have such a display available in Preview to do some annotation text markup on JPEGs but it's current option of showing fonts in the font window and using its small gray dot dragged down to display the style of each selected font is just too slow and awkward.
Does anyone know of anything or even a utility that could provide such an option.
I thought Apple's font handling and font style display had supposedly improved, but I cannot find many signs of such "improvements" and I am hoping some members may have a suggestion or two that they could offer.
Thanks in advance,
Patrick
