A Living Inventory of
Moveable Type

Browse the complete character inventory for each typeface and point size. Paste your copy into any font to check whether the case can cover it.

01
Catalog your type.

Add each font set you own: typeface, point size, and the count of every sort in the drawer. Logged once, then it stays in your library.

02
Paste your copy.

Drop in the text you plan to set and pick which font set you want to use. Works for anything from a card to a full broadside.

03
See your coverage.

TypeSort tallies every character against your inventory. Short on lowercase e's? It tells you exactly how many you're missing.

Do you have moveable type? Sign in with Google to store your catalogue. We wouldn't want you to get all out of sorts!

It's rare I see the words web tool and letterpress together. That's awesome you did this!

Very cool tool! I love that you are offering this to the community.
