Is there a way to print out all of the TrueType fonts on your system so that you would have sort of a quickview catalog, so to speak, and look through that without having to view them on the computer?
Thanks for the help

Wayne,
You can go to www.winfiles.com and find a font catalog program (shareware) that will do it for you. My favorite is FontMonster.

Wayne if you are using CorelDraw, the Bitstream Font Navigator that came with Corel will do this for you. You can tell it exactly what text you wish to use for the sample copy as well so you can get a better representation of all the characters.

For Mac users: I used a freeware program in the past called "The Type Book, A Power Tool from Jim Lewis". It was very cool. Had several options for printing out fonts. You could print one font to a page which would print it out at several type sizes. I used the option where it prints all upper case, lower case, numbers and the main symbols at the size I specified which resulted in around 9 to 10 fonts per page. If I remember right there were 4 format options.
