Detect font in a image

I have a very strange requirement that the font of text in a JPG image should be detected. How can it be done? I wonder is there any way to do so.

thanks in advance!

You can try these services:

  1. WhatTheFont I think that is the most accurate service to identify the font in a image, not fully automated and with limitations (it will only match what is in the MyFonts library) I recommend to use this if you want something really reliable

  2. Matcherator It will also match what is in its own library, less accurate, I can not give you any more information about it but i'm secure it's a good alternative

  3. Typefont I think is less accurate than the others 2 and and it contains a really small library but it's a JavaScript open source project where you can easily add new fonts to the library, although I am the author I do not really feel comfortable recommending it in the state in which it is currently, but you can contribute if you really need it

  4. Whatfontis I recently discovered whatfontis which detect both commercial and free fonts pretty accurately. The only small drawback is that on mobile is kind of slow, but on desktop does a very good job.

I hope to have helped.
