Preview fonts with the new Poster mode
Thursday, August 9, 2012
Selecting just the right font for your website or application is a personal decision, and making sure the font harmonizes with your content is often time consuming. To help you narrow down your font choices, last week we
announced
a new tool to compare individual characters in a pair of fonts side by side. Today, we’re introducing Poster Images, which allows you to easily see what a font looks like with different effects, on a variety of different backgrounds.
To start, visit the Google Web Fonts directory and select the Poster tab at the top.
Change the font size or the appearance of the poster to check out how different styles look. When you find a font you like, hover over it to see more details and add it to your collection.
We hope this makes choosing the right font easier and more fun!
