Not only because I’m doing designs, but also because, I’m fascinated by Typography, I tend to collect a lot of free fonts as well. The following is the list of top 5 free fonts from my collection in alphabetical order and a font viewer called AMP Font Viewer used for my collection of fonts.

Delicious Family

Delicious Normal

Delicious Heavy

Fertigo Family

Freebooter Script

Karabine

FF Nuvo (FF Unit Rounded Bold)

Registration at FontShop.com is required to download this free font.

Resources

A funny thing is now I realized that the resource of most of the fonts above is Smashing Magazine’s Font Category, which is one of the best resources for free fonts out there. There are a few other sites as dafont.com and fawnt.com.

If you also have a lot of fonts lying around in your computer and you have a hard time managing them and launching Photoshop or other graphic editing software, you might wanna have a look at AMP Font Viewer.

AMP Font Viewer

AMP Font Viewer is a freeware for managing and previewing installed/non-installed fonts. I’ve tried using many font viewers and this has been my favorite because of its neat little feature to install font temporarily.

Please share me and everyone else if you do have other good tools and resources for fonts and typography.

Google Reader မွာ Zawgyi-one ကို ျမင္ရဖုိ႕ အလြယ္ဆံုးနည္းကေတာ့ Stylish ဆုိတဲ့ Firefox plug-in ကိုသံုးျပီး tweak လုပ္ရမွာ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။

Stylish ကုိ Download လုပ္ျပီး Firefox ကို restart ျပန္ခ်လုိက္ပါ။

ျပီးရင္ေတာ့ Status bar ထဲမွာ Stylish Icon ေလးကို လုိက္ရွာျပီး click ႏွိပ္လုိက္ရင္ ေဘးမွာျပထားတဲ့ အတုိင္း menu ေပၚလာပါလိမ့္မယ္။ Menu ထဲက Write Style > Blank Style ကို ေရြးျပီး ေတာ့ ဒီ file ထဲက code ကို ကူးျပီးထည့္လုိက္ပါ။

အဲ့ဒီ့ Code က Google Reader ထဲမွာ ရွိတဲ့ Entry ေတြနဲ႕ Feed ေတြရဲ႕ Name ကို Zawgyi-one နဲ႕ျပေပးေအာင္ လုပ္တဲ့ code ပါ။ အဆင္ေျပသြားပါလိမ့္မယ္။ တကယ္လုိ႕ အဆင္မေျပဘူးဆုိရင္ Comment ထားခဲ့လုိက္ပါ။
