Anchek FontPeeper is the professional utility for previewing and preformatting your PostScript and TrueType/OpenType fonts and their character mappings along with several other important features such as embedding restrictions, available styles, various code pages and more. OpenType viewing is only available with Windows 2000 and above. This is a restriction of the previous Windows operating systems to recognize OpenType fonts.

Many of the major video and print publishing programs such as Premiere, InDesign, PageMaker, Photoshop, QuarkXPress, and Illustrator fail to offer you a method of viewing your fonts as you select them. Even then, you still might not know the embedding permissions, code pages supported or which styles (regular, bold, italic, and bold-italic) are actually available. When you work with a multitude of fonts, you cannot be expected to recall such information for each face.

The original version was highly praised for helping to solve this dilema. Today Anchek FontPeeper performs as a major professional tool that enhances your creativity.

Anchek FontPeeper is a small, easy to use tool which sits on your desktop much like a plug-in and provides you with quick access to viewing your fonts and information about them. It informs you of the various character sets and code pages available on your system and the fonts that have characters in those sets. It also allows you to preformat text in its preview window before dropping it into your programs using the clipboard.

Plus it includes a character map window to view the characters available within your fonts and the character keyboard input information. It has the ability to automatically place those characters onto the Windows' clipboard and also send a paste message to any open application to paste the character at the current cursor position.
