I find it very unproductive to select a font from a list without knowing what it looks like. Most programs now give the font list in the actual font, so you have an idea. Elements should do the same.

Thanks!

on windows;

select the text tool and apply any font and type your text on your image then commit text by clicking on checkmark at top of screen> keep text tool selected and go back to the text drop down of fonts and highlight the first one then use the up and down arrows on keyboard to view all fonts. It will preview all the different fonts on your text.

you can also follow the same directions except use the wheel on your mouse to scroll through all the fonts.

Thanks for the tip! You gave the info about the Free & Easy Font Viewer a while back and I have used it and now I can see what the font or fonts I have chosen look like in my designs.
