Font Matrix


Font Matrix is a font comparison tool that lists fonts bundled with Windows
XP, Windows Vista, Mac OS X Tiger, Mac OS X Leopard, Microsoft Office
(2003, 2007 and 2004 for Mac) and the Adobe Creative Suite. The chart
shows which software bundles and operating systems come with which
fonts, so you can get a good idea of how common a particular font might
be. This is an incredibly valuable tool for those looking to create their own
custom font stacks.
