Identifont: Identify Unknown Fonts

Discover the identity of unknown fonts with Identifont, a font identification tool featuring over 6,000 fonts in its database.

What is Identifont?

Identifont is a handy font identification and discovery tool developed by MyFonts. It allows users to identify unknown fonts simply by answering a series of multiple choice questions about the font's appearance, without needing to have an example of the actual font.

The tool presents users with a series of images showing different font attributes, and users select the option that best matches the unknown font. Questions include serifs, stroke shape, character width, and more. Based on the selections made, Identifont narrows down possibilities from its database of over 6,000 fonts to help users pinpoint the mystery font.

Once Identifont has provided its best guess for the font, users can view more info about the font like type family, designer/publisher details, sites that use it, and more. If needed, users can also go back and refine their selections to improve results. The tool also conveniently groups lookalike fonts to aid identification.

Overall, Identifont streamlines the font identification process through its intuitive visual questionnaire. Its comprehensive database spanning thousands of fonts across major type foundries makes it a go-to resource for graphics designers, publishers, marketers, and anyone working with typography trying to put a name to an unfamiliar font face.
