There are lists with fonts from A to Z, from E to N and then from O to Z. At the bottom, you can click on these alphabetical ranges to get the font lists. Another option is to show the fonts from Typekit; but this option requires you to have an account on Typekit.

There are text boxes for entering text for H1 and paragraph. Enter any text in the boxes and they will be shown in a heading and paragraph form. Or if you can simply click the lorem ipsum button to have the font overview in dummy text. Next is the option for the color of the fonts and the background color. Pick a color from the color picker or enter the hex code for a color you like. There’s an option for “Text Shadow” at the top bar with which you can toggle text shadow on or off to your text.

You can see the name of each font at the top of the font sample. Click on the Get Font button and you’ll instantly get the HTML code to insert to your header and the CSS code to embed the font on your website.
