Hi Product Hunters! I made TypeCase because I needed a better way to preview and compare fonts that I had on my Hard Drive but hadn't yet installed. As a designer you pick up tonnes of fonts during your working life – not all of which you want cluttering up your system or your font panels. There are of course some great font management tools out there for when you're ready to install and manage fonts – but this tool helps you find the fonts you actually want to install without any overhead. So if you get sent a pile of fonts or download a huge font pack, TypeCase helps you preview and find the ones you love. TypeCase also lets you compare multiple fonts together which is another massive headache for designers. So when you're hunting for that perfect typeface for a piece of work, you can check out a huge stack of options with just a click of your mouse. And when you're done finding that perfect set of fonts – simply export a PDF type specimen / style guide to hand off to your team or client.

First off, this is pretty awesome. Congrats! The only thing I'd add is the ability to allow users to type in a phrase and preview it in the fonts selected.

@josephstein it does just that - each font listed can have custom text set by clicking the disclosure arrow to open settings panel

Pretty useful. I do wish you could do more than just preview but I love the simplicity and the appeal. I have a buddy who would love this. I use http://wordmark.it/ which was created by @fahrio (a phenomenal designer). You can actually preview different words and is more versatile in the non-preview side of things when it comes to fonts you own. SUPER useful.

I was just thinking the other day "Hmm i could really use a better font viewer" and bam! here it is! This is great product! Just one suggestion instead of hiding away the placeholder text in the preferences, you should add a searchbar type functionality to change the place holder text.
