On occasion I’ve been handed work where I needed to replace some text in an image without any the original files.  It can be very time consuming to try and dig up the original font – or at least find a font that’s close enough.  That’s where My Fonts “What the Font?” can come in handy.

You can upload an image of some text, then designate which parts of the image are what letters and the application will give you a list of fonts that are similar to the one in the picture.  A definite time saver 🙂
