Fontmatrix is afont manager forLinuxdesktop environments. It can manage fonts installed system-wide or for individual user accounts. It relies onFreeType to render font samples, and onQt for its user interface.Bruce Byfield hailed the creation of Fontmatrix with an article concluding with: "Finally, the long wait for a GNU/Linux font manager is ending."
Fontmatrix lets users label a font with multiple tags (similar toGmail labels), which may be activated or deactivated as sets. It also allows the user to toggle features ofOpenType fonts for testing purposes. As of November 2008, thePANOSE classification present in fonts may also be used to select them by similarity.
