How it works

Legacy fonts don’t label their text, so detection is a heuristic. We’d rather show you the evidence than a single confident answer.

01
Convert with every font
Your text is run through each supported profile. A wrong profile still produces something, so this alone proves nothing.
02
Score what comes out
We check how much of the output lands in the right script and penalise impossible sequences, such as two vowel signs in a row.
03
Rule out the obvious
Plain English prose and text that is already Unicode are recognised first, so they don’t get mislabelled as a legacy font.
04
Rank, don’t declare
You get a ranked list with a confidence bar and a live preview of each result, so your own eyes make the final call.

Very short text. A word or two may fit several fonts equally well.
Fonts that share a layout. Kruti Dev and DevLys agree on most keys. If your text only uses those, no tool can separate them. Read the font name in the original file.
Mixed documents. Paste one language and one font at a time, or use the Word file converter, which reads the font of each run.
Fonts we don’t support yet. The “Fonts it knows” list is complete: if a font isn’t on it, the detector can’t name it.
