Free font software for mac

Font Menu is a OSAX that adds two commands, do count available fonts and do list available fonts.
To get a list of fonts, this osax internally creates a font menu that is invisible.


In classic type osax (that is code resource type):
the font menu is always created and disposed at every command execution (so there is no option for updating the menu).

In newer type osax:
the font menu is not disposed until the osax is uninstalled. By default, however, the font menu is updated (rebuilt) at each command execution. If there is no need to update the font menu (that is, if you assume no fonts are added nor removed while using the computer), you can specify false for updating parameter to make the 2nd and later executions a little bit faster.

Visual Font allows you to browse libraries of TrueType and bitmapped fontsthat can be easily viewed, printed, listed or duplicated, and withoutrestriction of number or size. VisualFont uses very few memory, theapplication is quite small, and it can still manage thousands of fonts.
The new search engine is able to find all fonts contained in any folder and itssubfolders, sort them, remove duplicates, and caches the search results todisk, so that you can stop the search process and resume it later.
Therendering engine now displays and prints text using multiple lines, and hasbeen greatly improved to fit professional needs. VisualFont uses drag anddrop intensively, it can interact with the Finder, and uses the latesttechnologies provided with MacOS 8 and MacOS 9.

- Version 2.6 offers a list view and has improved overall structure for speed and strength. It has been crash-tested with folders of over 6000 fonts, ensuring its stability.

Font Sampler is a small utility to help you view your fonts. Font Sampler allows you to view all your fonts in one big list. It supports different colors of backgrounds and text, size, your own custom phrase to view the fonts in, and the ability to underline the fonts.
Font Sampler does not show bold or italic fonts because that happens inside a typeface.
Snap To Defaults
Sometimes it is easier to start from the default black on white, size 12 setting rather than the blue and yellow size 48 setting you used when you last used Font Sampler. Since it is often easier to start from Font Samplers default settings, Font Sampler has a button that allows you to bring it to default settings.
Print Your Fonts
With the click of a button you can print off all of your fonts using the default settings. You can print them off for future reference or using the save as PDF button, you can print out what Font Sampler is displaying, send it to a client, and get some feedback.
Scroll
With Font Samplers scroll feature you can go through all your fonts, from top to bottom, without doing anything with your mouse. This allows you to concentrate on picking that right font and it can be useful when presenting to a client.
Combo Box
When you type in a phrase for Font Sampler to display, that phrase is cached in a ten item menu. If you want to access something that you used 10 minutes ago then you would simply select that item from the drop down menu.
Quick and Easy
Finding a font shouldnt be hard. It should be easy and quick. Font Sampler allows you to do just that. It gets right to the point so you can find the font you are looking for fast.
Enhancements:
- Crashing problems related to scroll fixed.
- Scroll now starts at the top visible row rather than at the top of the font list.
- French localization.
- Japanese localization.
- New scroll icon.
