Font Format | N/A | Font Files |
The FNT file extension is utilized by Microsoft Windows for mapping typeface and font settings. Typically, the file contains either bitmaps or vector images defining typefaces for a particular character set. FNT files are used to define the fonts that are used in various Windows programs. In addition to being useful for common desktop publishing tasks such as word processing and presentation slides, FNT files can also be embedded into webpages via HTML markup language.
Typical Use
FNT files can store a combination of vector and bitmap font information together in one file, which makes them compatible with multiple operating systems for device independent font-rendering. This allows the font to be rendered appropriately on screens with different resolutions. This type of font file is commonly used with Microsoft Office applications such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint as well as with fonts available through Adobe Creative Cloud. Fonts in FNT format are also found in various other programs including email clients, web browsers and image editing programs.
Similar File Extensions

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .FNT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .FNT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .FNT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .FNT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .FNT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .FNT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .FNT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .FNT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .FNT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .FNT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
