    Simple way I have found Joe is to just load the cd up in Konq file
    manager and run your pointer over them. If you have the preview turned
    on, you will get a small display window of the font appearance. You
    could turn on View>Preview>Show Previews from the menu, which will give
    you a a very small look.
