- Font descriptors including name, family and foundry
- Font metadata including style, slant, width, weight and version number
- Icons indicating font-file formats including OpenType, TrueType, PostScript, etc.
- Switches for activating and deactivating the fonts

Group Fonts by Metadata Values
To group fonts in the List View by their metadata values, use the Group By pull-down menu to select a column name.
FontAgent then inserts headings in the list to group fonts by your selected group value such as Family or Foundry
Activate and Deactivate Fonts
Use the green and gray activation sliders at the upper-right of each plank in the List View to activate and deactivate fonts.

When you select a font in the List View, the viewers in the bottom pane display that font as well.
