I don't think that solves the OP's problem. That still only shows an
upper and lower case A as a sample of any font.
No, it shows the full fontname and a sample - if you are seeing just
Aa, click on the icon at the lower right of that dialogue (in a right-
to-left locale it might be at lower left).
I think he's looking for a tool that allows him to enter a phrase
and
then display that in all available fonts - something like what's
available at:
https://fonts.google.com/
Yes, use a font manager for that. Fontmatrix is the most featureful on
Linux probably (but has some extremely dubious features); there's also
a gtkfontmanager that's easier to use but does less.
