Uncover fonts used by websites with FontFinder Firefox Extension

I am always trying to find the font, size and line spacing that makes for the most readable website text. I will come across websites who have a very readable text and will mess around trying to decipher their CSS code. Often it is just a waste of my time.

This problem is solved with the Font Finder Firefox extension.

Highlight any text on a web page.

Select Font Finder from the right click context menu.

Font Finder will display the CSS used to style the text. It is just that simple!

What a time saver!

Below is a screenshot of the display returned by Font Finder:

  1. I was hoping that it would show the font currently being rendered by the browser instead of the entire font family. Not so lucky.
