FontView Build Status

“FontView” is a little demo app that shows the contents of a font file. It opens *.ttf, *.otf, *.ttc, *.otc, *.pfa, and *.pfb files. To render text, FontView uses the open-source libraries FreeType, HarfBuzz, and Raqm. FontView is not an official Google product; use it at your own risk.
