    Font Style Previews in Illustrator?

    Rkenosha Community Member

      Hi, I am new to this forum. Is there a way for Illustrator to display the fonts as they would appear on the page in the Dialogue box or charater panel? I notice that Illustrator just uses one font to for all the choices.

      Or, is there a way to print out the various fonts for reference?

      Thanks Roman

          If the fonts are nto previewing in their face, then

          edit >> preferences > type >> and turn on font preview

          Apple Brail has <> around the font name, because this enabel missing glyph protection shows the font in another face, when the letters are not readable as in a dingbat font.
