WhatTheFont: Find font used in a logo or image


Stumble upon an inspiring logo but clueless about font being used on the beautifully crafted logo? Or perhaps you might wonder what font is being used on Google logo? To recognize precisely what fonts being used on an image is almost impossible as there are enormous number of fonts in existence and they keep counting.

WhatTheFont provides the solution towards this problem. All you need to do is upload an image file to its server where the image will be scanned and matched with its database. The maximum size for an image is 360 x 275 pixels, so make sure to resize it before uploading. It doesn't have to be a high quality image (although that will definitely help). If you want to get more information and tips about this service, visit its usage notes.

But hey, what if WTF can't find you the closest match of your font? Head straight on to the WhatTheFont forum to get more assistance.
