Font Manager is a font manager for GNOME. Font Manager cannot do any font management tasks yet, but is already useful for picking fonts.
Main features:
- List installed fonts
- Add previews for installed fonts
- Open font properties from context menu
- Set system fonts from the font manager
- Make the font manager installable

FONTpage is a Python font viewing and image-generating utility. It displays system fonts and allows you to change the font size and color, background color, font face, bold, and italics.
It also has the ability to input the text to be displayed, which you can choose to save as a PNG file. It is handy to view fonts and styles quickly, or to make "logo" graphics.
It was written to supersede wxFontView, as the pyGTK toolkit is much lighter and more widely used.
Enhancements:
- New "Display Font" feature opens popup window with complete alphabet (upper and lower case) and 0-9.
- Window shows current font with current size -- use multiple windows to compare different fonts.
- Font size now scales up to 256 pts (was 128)
- Config file will now track last window dimensions when the application is restarted.
- If user font directory directory (~/.fonts) does not exist, FONTpage will create one. This is to facilitate installing and deleting fonts, which FONTpage will only do on a per-user basis. (This is to avoid problems.)

Opcion Font Viewer is a free font viewer written in Java that allows you to view both installed and uninstalled TrueType fonts on Windows, Linux, Unix or Mac.
The main focus of Opcion is to allow you to view your uninstalled fonts so that you install only the fonts you want and keep your system memory free of fonts you dont want.
As you may have experienced, installing the brand new 1000 fonts font pack you just bought on your Windows, Linux, Unix or Mac computer can lead to slow-downs when starting the computer and when loading other programs.
The slow down occurs because the Operating System and certain programs (e.g. word-processors, email clients, graphics editors) need to load all system fonts so that they can be made available to you at any time. This is where Opcion comes in.
Opcion was written to handle the viewing of large font collections, therefore only fonts that you are currently viewing are stored in memory. Although the amount of physical memory you have will effect how many fonts you can view at a time, it will no longer be a limitation to you making use of your entire font library.
Another problem with most Operating Systems default font viewers is that while they are capable of viewing fonts, the default Windows/Linux/Unix font viewers only allows you to view fonts that are already installed and one at a time. Opcion allows you to view TrueType fonts located anywhere and allows you to view system fonts as well.
To help you pick the best font for the job, whether it be for your assignment, project logo or webpage, Opcion provides a list view of either system or other/uninstalled fonts so you may see how a font looks compared to other fonts in your collection.
When you see a font that you feel suits your current job you can simply click on it in the list view and it will be added to a favourites list that can then be saved for future reference or used to install only the fonts you want.
For viewing fonts, seeing how they would appear applied to your name/logo/tagline, and keeping track of which fonts best suit the job is the purpose of Opcion Font Viewer. Opcion allows you to view both installed and uninstalled fonts in different views depending on your needs. Written in Java, Opcion will work on all platforms that the Java Runtime Environment supports (which includes Windows, Mac, Solaris & Linux).
Opcion Font Viewer provdies a default view that allows you to view one font at a time, and a list view which allows you to view multiple fonts at a time. By clicking on fonts you like in the list view you are adding fonts to a faviourties list that Opcion keeps for you. The faviourites list can then be saved for future reference or used in finding out the file names of fonts you wish to install.
Main features:
- Viewing of installed/uninstalled fonts.
- List view of installed/uninstalled fonts.
- Adding/removing of favourite fonts.
- Saving of favourite fonts.
- Customizable sample/display text.
- Customizable font size.
- Customizable font properties (bold, italic, etc.) in sample text area.
- Changeable fonts displayed per page in List View.
Execute Opcion Font Viewer
To execute Opcion Font Viewer in Windows, download the EXE version. For Linux users use the command "java -jar Opcion_v1.1.1.jar" in console/terminal/shortcut.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/java/j2re1.4.1_02/lib/i386/libfontmanager.so: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This error occurs due to backwards compatibility issues with the Java Runtime and libstdc. To fix this problem for RedHat 9.0 install the RPM file compat-libstdc++-7.3.2.96.118.i386.rpm, which can be found on disc 1 of the downloadable distro. For other Linux distributions check rpmfind.net for libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 to see what package you need to install.
An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x4CAEE920 Function=(null)+0x4CAEE920 Library=/usr/local/lib/SunJava2-1.4.2/lib/i386/libfontmanager.so
This error appears to be a problem with Sun Microsystems Java implementation for Linux, the real cause for this crash is still being investigated. There are no solutions to this problem yet.
Opcion crashes during execution when using Blackdown Java Virtual Machine.
Opcion Font Viewer was programmed for Sun Microsystems JVM, and it uses Suns Java API extensively. Thus, it is highly recommended that you use the latest Java Runtime Environment instead of other JVMs.
Enhancements:
- Added sorting to other fonts list.

Free Unicode TrueType fonts for Baltic, Central European, South European and other languages, including Azeri, Maori, Welsh and Esperanto.

6,760 Fonts is a large archive with many free fonts.
The Absolute Fonts Archive created a page that will let you download many fonts one at a time, or for a fee you can download them all as a zip file.
Upon careful inspection of their site I found a multitude of corrupted font files. After removing all the corrupted files I was left with 6,760 fonts. I have chosen to turn them into a tarball and offer them as a free download.
Absolute Fonts Archive has neither licensed nor created any of the fonts on their site, but they do warn against commercial use of these fonts.
Version restrictions:
- installing that amount of fonts really slows down the KDE startup.

VSOFont is a small library used to draw very simple and fast user definable 2D vector fonts. At some point in time, when working with handheld devices, the font functions GLUT offered proved to be too massive. so i decided to write a very simple 3D vector text system using OpenGL myself. The application is coded in ANSI C.
Enhancements:
- added vsofont_read_font_from_memory().
- changed vsofont_read_font() to vsofont_read_font_from_file().
- example shows now how to draw a bolded string.
- VSOFONT header file should now work in C++ projects.
- small optimizations here and there.

fonty-rg project is a set of fonts for the Linux console.

LatCyrGr-16.psf is font containing most of ISO Latin characters, lot of cyrillic chars, lot of greek chars, and some punctuation. It is good for unicode linux console. This is 512 character font, means that you loose bold colour on linux console, unless you are using framebuffer.

chavo.psf is font containing lot of ISO-8859-2 repertoire, some additional ISO-8859-1 characters, Russian cyrillic characters and special Esperanto characters. It was specifically created to cover Czech, Slovak, Polish, Hungarian, Russian, German, Esperanto. Of course, it accidentally covers much wider range.

Good as a console font if you want to retain bold colours (and do not need some ISO-8859-1 characters - there was simply not enough space for them).

Usage

To build fonts: run build.sh script.
To modify fonts: edit files in source/ directory.
To add new charsets: add *.txt file into charsets/ directory.

To use fonts: there are two small scripts provided, iso and uni.
iso takes as an argument number of ISO-8859 encoding, switching console font into font for that encoding, and uni switches console into unicode mode, using big unicode font. See manpages for details.
