Back then I already thought that it would be nice to provide the information for each font, which characters each font supports and to provide a preview to get a good idea how each font looks like. When I launched the collection only a few fonts had this information available and then my site went black for about 2 years and that was that.<\/p>\n<p>Well with the re-launch of my site, many of my collections became under scrutiny, I remodeled the navigation and started using <a href=\"http:\/\/jquery.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">JQuery<\/a> scripts for state of the art overlay effects and dynamic interactions.<\/p>\n<p>When I was looking at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.roysac.com\/thedrawfonts-tdf.html\" target=\"_blank\">Fonts collection for TheDraw<\/a>, I remembered my original intention and ideas and decided to finally realize it reality. As of now, I show for every font in my collection the available characters. It&#8217;s shown in the listings and enlarged for better visibility if you hover with the mouse of a set (<strong>see screen shot<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.roysac.com\/blogimages\/TDFontsCollectionScrShot.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>While I was at it, I also updated my already existing <strong>2 ANSI<\/strong> and <strong>2 ASCII<\/strong> Fonts as well as 6 fonts by other folks where I added missing characters etc.<\/p>\n<p>I created myself <strong>5 entirely new ANSI (colored) fonts<\/strong> to expand my collection.
