Can you add support for thumbnails for font files (eg. .ttf, .fon) please.

I second that. Also, text displayed as font sample should be configurable (fe. to check for national characters).

I think browsing and displaying fonts is not XnView's core business and not so important. Yet, it would be nice and make XnView really complete if fonts could be browsed.
When adding, we should make sure that...
1.) XnView download does not become much bigger.
2.) Options are added: E.g. sample sentence (with history and predefined sentences).

Support for this, should be added on a seperate plugin basis - Xfonts.dll.
This can then be configured in Options -> Read -> Fonts.

hi,
imho, browsing fonts is mandatory nowadays.
a plugin solution is a good idea, too.
also a user-configurable text to display in the rendered thumbnail would be fine.
