- Instructive, with a rewarding repo for your time.
- Graphic designer here. A font recognition ai is sorley needed. Gemini and its competitors flat out lie when asked and Adobe Illustrators Retype is laughably bad. The problem I face almost every day is not to find a close match but to find the actual font in use, commercial or not.
- whatthefont and identifont used to work well, but they've been overwhelmed by new designs which are not used often enough to warrant inclusion.
I just use Rookledge's Type Finder and a battered copy of Precision Type 5.0
