Previewing and identifying fonts

CorelDRAW lets you preview fonts before you use them. You can also preview a font in all available styles, such as bold and italic; and you can change the size of the font names displayed in the Font list box. In addition, the Font list can display only the fonts used in the active document, filtering out fonts that you do not need.

You can also easily identify a font in the text portion of a graphic design. CorelDRAW lets you capture a sample of the graphic and automatically upload it to www.whatthefont.com for identification.

If a font has other styles, such as bold or italic, you can preview them by pointing to the flyout arrow next to the font name.

The fonts you used most recently are displayed at the top of the Font list box. By default, the list displays the five most recently used fonts. You can modify the number of fonts that appear in this list by typing a value in the Number of most recently used fonts displayed box. The maximum number of recently used fonts that you can display is 20.

The ideal letter height for the best search result is about 100 pixels. Capture only uppercase or lowercase letters, not numbers or special characters. Make sure that the captured text is horizontal and that the letters do not touch.
