WhatTheFont?

No more guessing whether that ad you saw uses Desdemona or Funky Fresh.

Ever wanted to have a font just like the one used by certain publications, corporations, or ad campaigns? Well now you can, using the WhatTheFont font recognition system. Upload a scanned image of the font and we'll show you the closest matches in our database!

Test it yourself: http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont

If you like it you may donate some NP$ for our fight against Cancer.

Used it before. Tested it with many fonts. Works so good.

Okay, that's really cool! It doesn't seem to work all the time though.

Sometimes you must help a litle, removing a background, save in grayscale

That might help yes as when I did it with Images it didn't find the fonts!
