For many years, Google has made more than 800 fonts available for free on its portal. Google Fonts. These fonts can be used just about anywhere online, whether in Google Docs or WordPress, but can also be downloaded for installation on your computer.
But the abundance of choice has one major flaw: how to choose the right font to use for your current project. For this, it is essential to be able to make comparisons. And this is where the site Better Font Finder steps in to save you time by filtering and comparing fonts based on their similarities.
Compare Google Fonts Made Easy
When we talk about fonts, we quickly fall into very specific terminology that only interests specialists: serif / sans serif, monospace... And yet, choosing the right font can make all the difference.
Better Font Finder will help you find fonts for your project based on criteria based on their appearance. No more barbaric vocabulary, trust your eyes!
Indeed, for Mattthew, creator of the site:
The terms serif and sans-serif are ambiguous, as many fonts mix the visual characteristics of both.
Here are the main features of the comparator:
- On the left, a series of visual cues are displayed allowing you to characterize the type of font you are looking for: condensed, monospace, serif, sans serif… filter the list using these buttons
- The font list displays by default all weights (more or less bold) for each font, but you can determine which weight you are interested in (thin font, very bold font, etc.)
- you can enter your own text to see how it will look with something familiar
- Click the star next to a font to save it as a favorite
- Click on a font to go to its Google Fonts page. This will give you more information and allow you to download the font.
Google Fonts is a very useful resource for embellishing text for free. Although Google's platform is quite user-friendly, it is not very practical for comparing fonts with each other... Better Font Finder is then a good solution!
