TestFonts is an extension for OpenOffice.org that enables users to test and choose the best font for their projects. The software provides a variety of font styles and sizes for users to experiment with until they find one that suits their needs.
Originally derived from StarOffice, an office suite developed by StarDivision and acquired by Sun Microsystems in August 1999, the source code of the suite was released in July 2000. The goal of the project was to provide a free, open and high-quality alternative to Microsoft Office in order to reduce its dominant market share. OpenOffice.org is free software, available under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). However, despite the informally adopted name "OpenOffice," this term is trademarked by another party, leading the project to adopt OpenOffice.org as its formal name.
Now, back to TestFonts. This extension offers two new buttons designed to streamline the process of searching for a font name from a report and copying a font name. These buttons offer users an effortless way to manage their fonts within OpenOffice.org. If you are an avid user of OpenOffice.org, TestFonts is worth consideration as an extension that can improve your experience.
