Font Families - VIewing/Grouping

Submitted by TheNetAvenger on June 8, 2008 to Usability

Can't easily browse or find fonts by familty type using Fonts Folder or Font Dialog

WIndows already undrestands font families and substitutions, we need a simple UI addition to the Fonts folder that allows the Font Family Type to be selectable for grouping/stacking fonts.

This should be available in the Font Selection Dialog as well.

I submitted an entry like this: http://istartedsomething.com/taskforce/view.php?id=63 . I said to include both in file details and as a column in explorer (which would allow grouping)

See my entry, which calls for a more robust font manager: http://www.aerotaskforce.com/view/400
