# font-sampler(1)

font management application for the GNOME desktop

Part of [font-manager(1)](/font-manager/1.md).

## NAME

font-manager - font management application for the GNOME desktop

## SYNOPSIS

**font-manager**

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **font-manager** and **font-sampler** commands.

**Font Manager** is a font management application for the GNOME desktop. It is not intended to be a professional-grade font management solution, but rather a simple application suitable for the needs of most desktop users and even some graphics designers who may need to manage just a few thousand font files. Although designed with the GNOME desktop environment in mind, it works well with most major desktop environments such as XFCE, Enlightenment, and KDE.

**font-manager** has been written with Python and GTK+2 and after installing the application you can run it from the **Applications** menu.
