Whatfontis uniquely empowers designers, marketers, and enthusiasts to quickly discover and obtain exactly the right typography for their projects by supporting fonts regardless of publisher, producer, or foundry.
How It Works
- Upload Your Image:
- Upload a clean image (drag and drop, URL, or paste) of the text you want to identify. Best results with clear backgrounds, separated characters, and good resolution.
- Optimise and Input:
- The system separates letters automatically. For cursive fonts, use the image editor to split characters. Verify and input the characters as prompted. Filter results (free, commercial, or all).
- Pick Your Font:

FAQs
How do I post to the forum if the system doesn't find my font?
First, upload your image to our tool to attempt identification. If the results are unsatisfactory, a link "Wrong results? Post the image to forum!" will be on the results page.
What if the system doesn't find any fonts for my image?
Our database may not always have your font. Try again with more or unique characters visible to improve accuracy.
How can I submit a suggestion for the system?
Send your suggestion by email; we review and may implement it.
What should I do if I see a font with incorrect characteristics?
If a font seems miscategorized, email us with details about the issue.
How can I submit my fonts to your website?
Free fonts can be submitted via www.ffonts.net (displayed within 24 hours). For commercial fonts, contact us directly.
Why can't I identify fonts from small resolution images?
Low-res images may lack detail. To improve results, use only clearly visible, unique characters.
