Embodiments of the present invention are directed at providing a font similarity preview for non-resident fonts. In one embodiment, a font is selected on a computing device. In response to the selection of the font, a pre-computed font list is checked to determine what fonts are similar to the selected font. In response to a determination that similar fonts are not local to the computing device, a non-resident font list is sent to a font vendor. The font vendor sends back previews of the non-resident fonts based on entitlement information of a user. Further, a full non-resident font can be synced to the computing device. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Non-resident font preview

Systems and methods are disclosed for classifying digital fonts. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods detect a new digital font, automatically classify the digital font into one or more font classifications, and make the digital font available via a user interface. More particularly, the disclosed systems and methods can conduct searches for the new digital font, identify digital fonts similar to the new digital font, and apply the new digital font to digital text in an electronic document.

Automatically classifying and presenting digital fonts

In various embodiments, methods and systems, for automatically generating guides, are provided. A user can generate guides based on content zones of a wireframe layout or visual element layout. A selection of a content zone having a shape is received. A selection of a guide creation action to generate a grid structure encompassing the shape of the content zone is received. A determination of a boundary set for the shape is made. The boundary set includes a top boundary, a bottom boundary, a left boundary, and a right boundary. The boundary set is based on a data (e.g., vector, pixel, text) perimeter of the shape. The grid structure is automatically generated based on the shape. The grid structure comprises a top horizontal guide, a bottom horizontal guide, a left vertical guide, and right vertical guide. The grid structure is located adjacent to portions of the boundary set of the shape.
