Hello,
I need a couple of unusual fonts for a logo I'm doing for a friend's web site, and nothing like what I need is installed on this Fedora 11 machine.
I see lots and lots of fonts in Gnome Package Manager that I can install. But is it possible to view them without installing them first? Is there a web site that shows what they look like?
I've just spent a long time Googling and searching the Fedora forums, etc. for the answer but nothing found.
TIA. Best regards, Mike

Right now, not really. The correct fix would be to enhance packagekit so it displays font previews (that's what the average user would expect)
http://bugzilla.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18928
(people need to add their voice here or it will remain an obscure RFE few people asked for)
A manpower-heavy short-term workaround would be for someone to generate previews for all the fonts and add them to the Fedora wiki https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Fonts
