FontGazer feedback

Need a more crisp preview of the font sample.

Even in the "High Quality Display" mode in InDesign 5.5 the sample font preview is bitmapped. This plugin would not help as it is now.

        In 100% a 10 or 12 pt font is not really a thing that helps to form an opion. So I am with Larry Talor, the review has to be better. It would be great also, when the plugin could show more than a few lines. Because a big problem to gauge font is when I need the font for a long text like a novel. So it would be great, if it would be possible, to see one page with that font to see its kerning.

        Hi KF,
        To revert the sample back to text, right click on it and select 'restore text frame.' We've received several requests to bring this feature into the FontGazer UI. We've also received requests to offer high res previews. In the meantime, make sure you're viewing at 'Actual Size.' This will give you a crisp preview.
