Fonts From Download Squad: "Are you constantly struggling to remember the difference between Arial, Times New Roman and Palatino Linotype? Sure, you could just keep changing fonts from the drop-down menus in your word processor, or you could use FontEXPRO, to preview all the fonts stored on your computer and choose the right one for the job. When you first run FontEXPRO, there's a chance the main window will just be blank. We thought that navigating to the "Windows Fonts" folder would help, but it didn't. We're guessing it didn't know where to find our fonts since we run Windows XP off of the E drive, not C. But once we clicked "Select Folder" and found the font directory, up popped a list of fonts. You can then enter some text and see how it looks under each available font." 1:53:25 PM
