Windows 7’s new font manager overview

Windows 7 will introduce a new / upgraded font manager. As a part time web designer i have always been frustrated by the lack of ability to manage windows fonts without physically remove the Windows fonts and storing them in a temp directory, I’m sure like me you have collected some great fonts over the years and when it comes time to select one you need to choose from a list that’s 1000+ strong not only does this slow over the years it is also hard to remember all your favourite ones.

Windows 7 will adress these issues by including a Windows 7 Font Manager. The new Windows 7 Font manager will include the ability to group, install, uninstall, preview and also the abilty to hide fonts.

While this is only a small update its something many people have relied on 3rd party software for, Again Windows 7 is starting to shape up quite nicly already and lots of small updates like this one will ensure Microsoft remain the premium OS.
