How to identify a font from an image
How do I find out what font is in a picture?
Upload the picture above, or paste a screenshot. Typesay reads the words, you click the line you want, and every font is compared with it letter by letter. The closest matches come first, each one free to download.
Can I identify a font from a screenshot of a website or logo?
Yes. Screenshots are the best kind of picture because the text is sharp and straight. Crop close to a few words in one font for the best result.
Is this font identifier free?
Yes, completely free, with no account needed. You only pay if you choose to buy a commercial font from one of our designers.
What if the font in my picture is a paid font?
If the exact font is not on Typesay you get the closest fonts that look the same, with free ones cleared for commercial use. That is often all you need for a logo, sign or social post.
What kind of picture works best?
A clear, straight-on shot of a few words in one font. Avoid heavy angles, curved text and busy backgrounds. Screenshots work very well. If the words we find are wrong, fix them in the letters box before searching.
How does it find matches?
We read the words in your picture, then set those same words in every font on Typesay and compare the shapes letter by letter, allowing for different spacing and checking the stroke weight. The closest drawings come first.
Is my image stored?
No. It is processed in memory and discarded. Nothing is saved.
It found similar fonts, not the exact one.
If the lettering is a commercial font that is not on Typesay, you will get the closest free alternatives. Try a tighter crop or a different word if the first results miss.
