Find every font referenced in your art file

Drop in a PDF, AI, EPS, or SVG and we will list every font the file references - flagging which ones are embedded vs which the renderer will fall back to. Find missing fonts before they bite you on press. Free with no login.

List every font referenced in your art file

Drop in a PDF, AI, EPS, or SVG. We will walk the file's structure, list every font it references, and tell you which ones are embedded (the file ships glyph data) vs which ones are missing but referenced - the gotcha where your customer's proof looks fine on their machine but the press substitutes a fallback font.

What you get back

  • Embedded fonts: family, weight/style, type (TrueType / Type1 / Type0 / CIDFont / webfont), subset flag.
  • Missing-but-referenced fonts: any font the file points at but doesn't carry. These are the danger list - the press will substitute and the customer's proof will not match production.
  • The "Standard 14": PDFs often reference Helvetica / Times / Courier without embedding because PDF readers traditionally fall back to system installs. Modern print workflows expect every font embedded; we surface these so you can ask the designer to outline or embed before sending to press.

About visual font ID (Path B)

This tool covers files that already include font metadata. If you have a screenshot or logo PNG and want to identify the typeface visually, that's a different (harder) problem - we're building a curated PPD-focused classifier in a follow-up phase. For now, services like WhatTheFont and Fontspring Matcherator handle that case.
