3.0 out of 5 stars You already have most of the fonts

As an add on, for only a few dollars, this product is fine. It will give you a few fonts that are not standard with an operating system.

4000 fonts? well, counting both truetype and postscript versions, so really 2000, then take out the extended, condensed, outline, and other versions of the same fonts and you are left with about 800 different fonts, now that includes an oblique version of almost every font, which I leave in because it's a little difficult to make them on the fly. Many of them have regular, bold, bold oblique, oblique families, and THE VARIANTS ARE NAMED RIGHT, so they are easy to weed out. The fonts themselves are smooth where they should be, and appear well constructed. I cannot speak about the font manager software because I'm on a Macintosh, and so cannot run it, but the fonts are well worth the money.

It may have 4,000 fonts but alot of them are basically different versions of the same font. A little skinnier, a little fatter, bold, italics etc etc. Some fonts literally have dozens of different styles, yet it's still the same font. It doesn't take long to add up to 4,000 when you do that. If your looking for fun, funky, cool fonts, don't get this, they aren't on here. OK, that's a lie, there aren't very many. It all depends on your tastes. There are alot of good fonts on here, and it's well worth the price to have them all in one place. Sure beats downloading them all individually, but don't think that you're going to get 4,000 DIFFERENT fonts, not here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really not bad
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2007
I picked this one up in a bargain bin, and I'm glad I did. I was wary when I saw some of these middling reviews on here, but this program really isn't bad. It's NOT true that most of these fonts will be on your system anyway. Some might, but the overwhelming majority weren't on mine, and I use a lot of fonts. In fact, this disk gives you so many different fonts that you'll overload your system if you install all of them. It's way more than Windows can handle! Fortunately, the program comes with a handy font manager, which will tell you how many fonts you already have installed (don't go over 800 or so, because they use resources), and show you samples of what any font looks like before you go ahead and install it or uninstall it.

I can't understand why people thought this program was hard to use. It comes with a two-page online guide that explains everything in clear English. You just have to have a basic understanding of how fonts work in your operating system.

2.0 out of 5 stars It is exactly as advertised....

Font collections like these are all the same, X,000 fonts, mostly filler, crap you will never use. No, they are not misleading; a typeface is a style of lettering (Times), a font is a particular variation of that style (Times Bold Italic). So yes, this collection really does contain 4,000 fonts. And they are tempting because you want to think, "WOW! 4,000 FONTS! Just think of all the cool stuff I can do!"

Don't give in, or waste your money. Typography is like furniture, price reflects quality, durability, and value. 50 classic typefaces will last you a lifetime, and serve you far better than * 500,000 FONTS * ever will. Classic letterforms have been around for centuries, even millenia, for good reason. If you consider yourself a designer, invest in the Adobe Font Folio. It's all you will ever need. For everyone else, and for special purposes, use online directories such as fontscape to find what you need. There are many independent type designers doing great work--support them! Don't clutter up your computer with these bloated collections of castoff slag. Great type is great art; don't expect it to come cheap!
