A font caught your eye.
Let’s find its name.
From a shop sign to a saved screenshot. Find the closest typefaces,
compare the details, and make something your own.
What font are we looking for?
A screenshot, logo or photo works. We’ll help tidy it up.
Some sites block image links. If a link won’t open, save the image and drop it here.
Give the letters a little room.
Best results: select 4–10 characters (one line of text).
Rotate the box to follow the text. The preview below shows the straightened result.

A clearer picture. A closer match.
Text already clear? Click .
Auto Adjust balances uneven lighting and straightens small tilts. Every adjustment can be undone.
Are these the right letters?
Check the guess below. Uppercase and lowercase matter.
Tap letter images to select pieces for merging, or drag one onto another. Red × removes a piece; Undo restores it.
All fonts are searched by default, including commercial and mixed-license catalog names. Their previews and prices may require the foundry’s website. Additional font data downloads once.

Know the font’s name? Search its indexed style. Have the font file? We can compare its actual letter shapes, right here.
A name search needs a catalog entry; it cannot invent a missing typeface. An uploaded font gives us the actual design. Alternatives are suggestions, not exact replacements.

How to add Web Font Checker to bookmarks
Can’t see the bookmarks bar? Press Ctrl + Shift + B
On Mac: ⌘ + Shift + B
Escape closes the inspector. Some sites block bookmarklets or hide content in cross-origin frames; it cannot bypass those browser protections. Font-stack probing is a best estimate, especially for mixed scripts and fallback glyphs.
Can’t drag it, or using a phone? Set it up manually
- Save any page as a bookmark and name it Web Font Checker.
- Copy the code below. Edit that bookmark and replace its address (URL) with the copied code, including javascript: at the beginning.
- Open a website, then open your saved bookmark. On a phone, tap text to inspect it.
Your browser asks you to save or edit bookmarks yourself; a website cannot add one automatically.

Still not the one?
This may be a premium font, custom lettering, or a design outside the catalog. A larger catalog may help. Your image is not sent to these sites automatically.

A few good questions.
Is Font Finder free, and do my images get uploaded?
Font identification runs in your browser without credits or an API key. Images and entered text are not uploaded. Your browser downloads public models, catalogs and font preview files as needed; outgoing download requests do not contain your image or preview text. Opening a vendor link takes you to that website.
Can it name every commercial font exactly?
No. It ranks designs contained in its catalogs, including indexed commercial names when expanded search is enabled. Those indexes do not include a licence to redistribute premium font files. An absent font, custom logo or modified lettering may only get similar results. Upload a font file you own to compare its actual shapes with free alternatives.
What does the similarity percentage mean?
It is a visual similarity score from the model, with letter-aware comparison when a candidate can be rendered. It is not a probability that the font name is correct. Similar-looking families, blur, perspective and short samples can confuse any identifier. Compare distinctive letters before choosing a font.
What makes a good image?
Select one line of roughly 4–10 letters, with a little space around it. Avoid mixed fonts. Auto Adjust can help with lighting and small tilts. Confirm the exact letters, including their case; your corrections are used to compare renderable candidates in the same text.
Can I use a premium font to find a free alternative?
Yes. Search for its name in the indexed catalogs or choose a TTF, OTF, WOFF or WOFF2 file you have permission to use. The tool compares its style with the free Google Fonts catalog. A close visual alternative may differ in spacing, glyph coverage or licence. Your uploaded font remains in this tab.
Will it work offline or on my phone?
The basic workflow is responsive and supports touch. Models and public font assets are cached in IndexedDB where available. Recognition can continue without a connection in an already open tab after the required files are cached, but an uncached font preview or catalog still needs a download. CPU fallback is supported; performance depends on your device.
Can it identify Bengali, Hindi and fonts inside any website?
This release focuses on Latin-letter image matching. Dedicated Bengali/Hindi recognition and a browser extension are planned; they are not advertised as working features. The bookmarklet inspects page styles locally, but browser security policies, cross-origin frames, mixed-script fallback and closed shadow roots can limit what it can see.
